"Hey George"

"Hey Ralph"

"Out fishing again today George?"

"Ayuh. You?"

"Oh, no. Not me today. Was taken out for a bit more'n that I'm afraid. Y'know Don Chico yuh? See, he took me out today. With'n a... package."

"Oh, Ralph, you don't mean.."

"S'right George, he finally did it. Poor thing."

"Oh ayuh. Sad times, sad times."

"That they are George. That they are."

Great colors on the boats and the reflections. The washed out hills and sky detract somewhat. A greaduated ND filter (or similar effect from PP) can help with the difference in brightness on landscape photos.

Ireland huh? I know a couple of people in Ireland. One of them doesn't want to hear from me anymore. Sorry if it's you. };>)

Anyway, the photo is lovely and because of the varying depths of the objects, I'm seeing a really cool three dimensional effect. The focus is not super sharp to me but has a kind of soft look which to me, adds a touch of mystery to such a place. It looks like the photo is pretty much out-of-the-camera which is certainly good enough for me. I think the sky could have used a touch of dodge and burn. My favorite part is the land above the green boat. Nice. I'm going with a 9 as a total for the photo.
