I would agree the the mauve/purple hue does make the image look a bit strange -- lovely as it is ...

I checked this image and the white part of the sky is 248-253-240. The "white" birch is 138-140-147 The gray on the dock is 133-115-145 I could not see a true black to test. I dont know what mauve is. What do you suggest?

Nice shot, but the image has a strong blue/mauve cast that takes away from this very fine image.

Thanks for your comments Lanni - yes I believe it was the "kit lens" which has given me great results. Just saw the Ansel Adams exhibit at the MFA in Boston. As he said (and I shoot raw) the negative is the "score" and the print is the "performance". Went by this spot this year and the birches on the left are suffering quite a bit - and may not make it. It seems some get hit and others not. Fred Parsons

we are too boring down under!
why don't we have boat houses such as these? better yet, why don't we have scenes like this down here?
beautiful.
