Nice one here... I am glad you did not show us the heart also!! "On the job", my friend. Very good.

Hi Alin,
Just a few words on this.
Start with the color balance, which is too yellow.
Then go with noise reduction up until the noise disappears (maybe selectively on the sky only).
Then just pop-up the saturation a bit.
You want some hints? Just try Lightroom!!

Hi Bernd, Just a little more saturation in my opinion. Everything else seems fine. Something with the quality of the image also bothers me (much compressed). Try to include the sky in some of your shots.

Hi Jim, good low POV but ou should de-center the man in some manner without ruining the waterfall waters in the background. If this was possible it would add to the photo.

Amazing note! Why not try to find a theme to accompany with? E.g. a young girl with her grandfather just under the note?
It would be an amazing shot!

Difficult light conditions. Just a note, since you have a dark part in upper right corner why not create an artificial vignetting that covers all 4 corners? This would draw attention to the light portions (the castle).
Nice work

It's amazing how nature never seizes to amaze us. In my opinion you should just erase the light dots that are distracting. Just decide a clean approach and you'll be fine.
Nice approach, you just underexposed and a miracle appeared!

Hehe, always good in this type of photo. It's been a while my friend. I am having problems with TE site, slow pages, weird behavior while uploading/writing critiques. Not much of a fan of the new (now old) design.
You have a good eye, I've said it before and I am repeating myself once more.
Take care my friend.

Γειά σου φίλε μου, πανέμορφη αν και λίγο σκοτεινή η φωτογραφία σου. Επέλεξες να συμπεριλάβεις το ανθρώπινο στοιχείο, αλλά ελπίζω να πλησίασες λίγο για να αποθανατίσεις και τη μοναξιά του τοπίου χωρίς την ανθρώπινη ύπαρξη. Μια πολύ καλή δουλειά.

I love the mood my friend. Although a misty shot one would expect much noise, especially because you sharpened it. You did a very good job keeping the color details intact.
Well done
