Oh oh people of the earth!
'Listen to the warning' the prophet he said
For soon the cold of night will fall
Summoned by your own hand

The Prophets Song by Queen

A challenge out-take. I'm so lame when it comes the these "Best Of" challenges, I just find a high scoring shot and edit an out-take in the same manner. 2009 wasn't a good year for me getting out and shooting - I was lucky to make it 47 steps from my house at times ;)

outstanding in every way - it almost comes across as a charcoal drawing

Love your work Nuzzer. This is one of my favourite images of the challenge... one of many excellent images... I've already voted and now commenting... only realised this was a Nuzzer thanks to saphire faving my entry, and me having a look at her previous fav's and seeing your Mystic River entry amongst them. Anyway... what is it I like... love the composition and the use of duotone... subtle but effective... and love that there's more detail in the reflection than at the top.

I'm not sure if this is tone-processed, but it's lovely. Terrific reflection.

Pretty blue coloring in this shot, gives a feeling of mystery and coldness. I love the reflection here.

Absolutely gorgeous. Your tones are outstanding, as is the clarity of the shot. I love how the reflection reveals more than the actual scene. 9

Nice mist and reflection, good composition.

The cool blue hues in the composition really projects the feeling of a cold and chilly night rolling in with the fog. Love the dark silhouette of the barren tree. It's branches undulate and stretch not just skyward but down towards the water as we see it's reflection. Beautiful, simple and poetic in this capture - 9
