Yeah, I played around with cropping also Ben but decided not to yet. But I do think there is a cool shot that can come from this from cropping.Very nice Kyle, I can see that it's going to be a tough vote this week. I like the balance of dark recovery while keeping contrast on Moran, and the good sky treatment.
Some of us have been cropping, others not, it will be interesting to see which prevails.
I like the update Jim. Brings the details on the mountain out nicely. I’ll upload my take on this later today.
These are nice Jameel. I have to think about that motion blur, I do kind of like it, but I also like it without it. I will have to think a bit more on it.OK, here is mine. I went for the crop as well as I feel that makes the image stronger. I also worked on pulling back some cyan from the mountain, warming the foliage and the sky a bit. Finally added some motion blur to the water as I wanted to give a long exposure feel to this image.

EDIT: Here is the version w/o the motion blur.

Use the one with blur.Jameel. The edit appeared after my comments. Which version should be in the vote?
