Mary Anne, my daughter is going to college (sniff) in a couple of days. She and her roommate are in the kitchen looking online at posters for their walls. They saw an image like yours here and I said, "My friend, Mary Anne, just posted a shot almost exactly like that one. I'll see if she'll sell us a poster." So, will you, Mary Anne?? My email addy is theonlymommy (at) hotmail.com if you want to take this to a private place... ~Lydia

Thank you Doug and RK. Now that the sun has finally returned after days and days of rain, maybe I'll have a chance to get a more Ansel-like photo with a dramatic sky. No shortage of water around here. --Mary Anne

All that is missing from this scene is me, my iPod, and a favorite beverage. -COAmature

Thanks for the nice comments Rod, Brent, Cat, Sue Anne, and Tommy. I'm really enjoying this challenge, as I never understood the zone system before. Been spending lots of time trying to apply it to all kinds of shots, with varying degrees of success. Cat, thank you so much for choosing this as a topic. I'm sure we'll all find improvement in our photography as a result. --Mary Anne

Looks like a place I'd like to be (peaceful, full of all the right elements and tones). really nice... Penny Street

Very effective composition and well distributed, broad tonal range. Really nice too look at. -tv

Beautiful from the boat up close to the far away view of the land.

I totally agree with Rod and Brent!!!. Wonderful!!! You have even captured a thin layer of fog/smog above the water, very beautifully processed! -Cat

Great comp Mary Anne, and Rod is right about having most every zone in just the boat and pier. ~Brent

Gawd this is an excellent picy you probably have the full tonal range in the boat & pier. Great composition too Mary Anne, very well done.
