Over the water and over the snow

Over the water:

*EDIT*
Trying to improve on the one above :?

Over the snow:

I am trying to learn to use curves rather than simply brightness/contrast since it seems to allow for a lot more fine tweaking.

Not sure if the first one is too dark, i was trying to make a "brooding sky" with it.

Thanks for looking

Nyt, both are great shots!!! I think the top may be a bit dark but my monitor at work has glacoma so I'm not too sure. The bottom looks great though but it also has a lot more white in it.

Good pic's, the tracks in the snow really add to the picture.

Nice work, the water shot is a little dark for me. You have this much snow on the ground in Buffalo already? We have yet to see a good fall in the Toronto area yet.

Nice, #1 is little on the dark side, like sky, but blackness of the water seems a little overwhelming

#2 ditto on the comments

still waiting for snow here :cry:

i like these a bunch! i perfer the first water post as i tend to lean towards the dramatic side at times. the low angle of the water adds to the mood and the sky following the shore line also works well! nice work!
