Hi John, I like this photo. The mist and the solitude help to create an atmospheric, evocative image. There is something of the allure of India in this shot.
Regards,
Ryno

Hello John! this is a lovely image, something signature of Kerala backwaters. I would suggest you to be a little bit careful while post-processing, the top right shows semi-circular bands, whcih should have not appeared.
Thanks, Arnab

Great to see three house boats in such close proximity. Captured the morning mist very well.

Hi John. A beautifully composed picture with the house boats becoming progressively less distinct in the misty distance and by contrast, the lone boatman becoming more distinct in the foreground. Lovely balance to the whole. I like the coconot trees forming a circular shape in sky and water.Well done. Regards. Klaudio

Hi John,
Yes,those semi circular bands at the top-right is bit distracting.Also it is looking a bit hazy and colourless at the horizon.So pay more attention while post processing snaps.But this is a beautiful snap of "Gods own country".Typical characteristics of Kerala.
TFS,
Dhurjati

You have captured the mystery of this place in a mindblowing way.The huge houseboats and the small boat are good contrasts. The green is very soothing. Good composition of this place. Congrats and tFS
