I like the darkened foreground, it helps pull you through. Seems a lot of early work had a lot of dodging done to all the corners. Well, a lot of the lenses added it anyway. Not seeing the first version I can only say this works well. I agree anything more wouldn't add to it. Less to clutter as is, and among my favorites of the gallery so far. I think the sepia is personal taste, as I prefer a more faded look. But for this shot, it's not a distraction, and adds to the smooth look of the fog. I always enjoy seeing your monotone work, much to learn by viewing it.

I got rid of the plants at Jeff's suggestion. The bottom part seemed a bit light so I added a gradient to darken it, and just a bit more sepia. I think I like this better since it has fewer distractions from the intent. Thanks for the idea Jeff.

I really like this. It has a dream-like quality about it. The processing is right-on. I like the composition a lot, but might prefer a version without the plants on the bottom.

You did a fine job on this one Barri. It looks like it was taken recently, as the weather looks really yucky. Your toning is really good and a nice choice as well.
