But, I need to know if these images are going to work, or if I am beating a dead horse. Please comment...I am really quite thick skinned but you can bring me to tears... ;D (Not really) 8 X 10 crop on both   |

Well Chris, I like the first of the two best. I do think I like this with the forground interest better than I did the similar shot without. I think it is really going to be up to you as to if it works. While it is a nice calm image it lacks the impact to make it spectacular for me.
Oh and yes, I like the 8x10 better. =}

Rather than warm the image with a magenta tint, have you tried a 'cooling' filter to give a slightly blue tint, that might better represent the chill of a misty morning?

Still sticking to the B&W one.

Barry, I answer "yes" to your question. As to which one? I am kinda partial to the first one. I feel as though the magenta lifts the image overall, while the B&W seem to make the image softer. Dont know if that made any sense, LOL! I would hang either one in my office.

Tried that, but didn't like it...seemed too blue. The magenta was natural and pretty much replicated the scene. This particular area seems to produce a lot of reflective magenta...not sure what dynamic has to be in place to make this happen, but happen it does. |

I'm partial to #1 myself Chris as the tint in the image seems to bring out more of the detail on some parts of the scene.

it has nice atmosphere and i like the treatment also, but the reads in the foreground are not strong enough to take it to the next level, it needs a boat in there or something
I've been taught a good landscape needs 3 interesting points in it, foreground, middle and background this hasn't got the first that would lead you to the reflections then on to the trees
As far as the colour goes, the magenta could be warmed up very slightly but that is personal preference
