Romantic light; I like how the shadows diverge from the trees to the viewer and how even the smallest twig and every detail of the buildings can clearly be seen -gerald

Nice color and network of trees. Definitely creates a mood.shu

Nice one Pedro - I like the filigree arbors (or whatever) that compliment the outlines of the trees - they make the image for me. CJ

Thanks guys!

I only changed the WB, I think... and then levels as always.... after reducing (it was tough to meet the 150kb limit), I did a normal sharpening...

Henry, you're right...actually, the spot was more evidente, I tried to clone it out, but it messed up the branches, so I let it be...

Thanks again for the comments!

Very nice photo, I like the detail of the bare branches throughout the shot. The small blue dot of lens flare is not so distracting that you should try to remove it. - Henry

Nice details in the tree braches is right! The color does seem unusual and could be overcast but it's hard for me to tell. Even the sidewalk has a green tinge to it. I first thought it might be refraction through the leaves but, I can't find many leaves to pin it on :-) Nice light. Markjay

wow! how did you get such pretty colors? are these out-of-camera colors or did you add some layer on the top. either way, i really like this silhouette. excellent sharp details in tree branches too. -Abstract
