           | thanks so much Txules for your kind comment. hehe...yea, I see that, it's mostly because of the filters I use here, that always gives more 3D fealling to the textures and some times that against so blur elements (like the water here) looks oversharped, you're right...
 best regards!

           | Very interesting piece of object, at first look I thought it was floating, maybe had you clone the metal bar , it would have created the illusion, but I don't think that was your purpose. Very good detail;s seen, and the blurring of the background helps focusing the eye on the subject.
 well done John..
 regards..

           | John a beautiful angle and subject; for my taste is a bit oversharpened and overcontrast, but it's funny i say this when i have the tendency to do the same :) so do not take me into account too much...be well...txules

           | Hello  John ...this is a  very  nice  image as it  has  some 'RUST'  haha!! 
 What I  really  like is  the  dof , and  the clarity and  focus  of  the  fishing  light  as  well as the  reflection or  light  the  top of  the lamp  gives  off... great  shot ! 7/7
 
 Take  care,
 Michele~
