Man, this is a great painting, a great piece of digital art. I truthfully thought this was a photograph at first. The light play on the water is so amazing. The detail on the tree is great, too

Nicely created image. It captures the local (I am saying Alaska just because that is what it feels like to me) very well. I like the buildings on the lake and the misty clouds with the diminishing background. The tree makes a good foreground frame and the waterfall is a nice touch. Well created.

It is really the great work. A lot of to view, and narrative. Beautiful village on a distance, and the figure of the man and a dog look very romantic. Nice composition, thanks for sharing.

Wish I had a 6 left. So amazing! A composition and atmosphere that just draws one in to join the man and his view. Superb perspective, rendering, and use of light and shadow. Truly a masterpiece of digital art. Fantastic job and one of your very best!

Beautiful digital piece. The use of shading and highlights creates such depth in this piece. I like the silloutted feel of the tree and man with his dog. Beautiful work!

It looks so good you think it's a painting not a photo.
Well done in black and white makes it stick out more like a 3D is this a digital photo because I can't tell.

    Thank you ever so much! It's photo manipulation, consisting of several different stock photos and digital painting. Again, thank you for the comments. Very much appreciated :))shawn

Cool,Shawn!
The scene has an interesting 'antique-y' look to it that reminds me of an illustration from an old ( REALLY old! ) ghost story!
Definitely a 'Good Show',my friend! : )

This is a wonderful image, very well created , nice use of the Black and White, good tonal variations, beautiful scene with a tree in fore as framing, the waterfall on the right is awesome, the man and his dog pause on the hill to take in the sounds of the rushing water.i like the lake and the structures that overlook it,nice hills in the background under a cloudy sky! Well created and presented!
