Well, I'm glad you can go beyond the technical deficiencies of this shot, I was almost ready to give up so I'm glad I posted it here.
While I get it that technically is better with more detail around, I still prefer it in the initial version as it enhances the feeling of solitude and that was what I was trying to communicate. That being said if it's not overdone some detail looks it's not going to be as bad as I thought it might be initially.
