Its a nice decent photograph, I like the composition and the angle, nice lighting, clarity and how sky reflecting on the water. Nice shot.

I like this shot and yes, it does show a lot. Like the lighting coming across and falling into the water reflections. Colors look good. The foliage nicely frames the left side. 'Enjoyed.

You have in this, captured the entire circle of life.
The focus is good and encompasses the entire frame.
To me the balance, and composition, are quit nice.
The colors play well together.
The light while being a little soft works.
I see a creative and skiled imagination.
I see a high degree of technical excellence.
I also see a high level of sophistication in the overall appearance of this image.
Also I believe that this image caries a capacity for story telling.
Very nicely done.
Thank You for sharing,

nice shot the water is crystal clear. I can see all the way to the bottom of the river. Great shot again. It looks very peaceful and relaxing

Comment from Flight_of_Raven


Indeed, this is a very good photo in terms of the transition from summer to winter... vegetation is dying yet some color is visible in the water. I like the symbolism there. I think the composition is excellent, following the rule of thirds and using the vegetation primarily as a frame. However, I think the lake could have been presented a little more creatively, primarily, use a tripod and a slower shutter speed so that any reflections in the surface of the water show up more smoothly. This shot could be extremely powerful with well-controlled reflections visible in the water. Also, vegetation is a little washed out and you could try playing with the saturation/luminosity of the greens there to adjust for it.

All in all, nice job. I found this image quite soothing.

This is very good. The colour and lighting are excellent, the composition is very good and the focus is tack sharp a very good landscape cropped well.

You have captured some lovely clean water. However there isn't much of a focal point. I'm not sure what to focus on the water the reflection the plants. They are all nice on their own but seem to lack a thread. Thanks for sharing

This is kind of nice. I like the colors. The lighting is good. I especially like the reflections. To me this photo really does not have much to offer.

I love how the colour blue just brings this scene alive. The dark blue on the right reflecting the green tree in the foreground is beautiful. The lighter shades on the left bring balance to this lovely scene.BEAUTIFUL WORK! - Joyce Vitek

Comment from Vogeltanz,B


I really like this shot. The colors are very good. I enjoy the ripples in the water. It is cool how you can see through the water in some places but not others. Great shot.
