"As idle as a painted ship, upon a painted ocean" was brought to my mind from a poetry book of schooldays. *g* The mountain makes a great background and is still lovely and light. In fact, this picture seems to just shine. But also contrasts with the darker foliage and seat in the front. A very lovely scene.

Hi Steve, are you a new member?, welcome to the group. thanks for the nice comments. This is the colour of the actual scene at the time. The floating home has a nice patch of sunlight on it, but the trees were a bit dark in the photo , plus it was late in the day.

So I believe I added "fill flash" and "brightness" with the photo software. I like that time of day for capturing the images tho. Thanks again.

That sunlight with its incredible red-brown hue is stunning! Did you have to fiddle with the saturation, or is this as it was captured?
