This is a beautiful landscape, although, it looks as if it was recently flooded. The marsh and its vegetation is interesting. Your photo is excellent focused and exposed and has impressive depth. I enjoy the refinement of detail and the realism of color and light. The reflections at the water are attractive. I like how the inlet leads the eyes of the viewers into the background. The landscape is expertly composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

A very nice wetland scene. I like the view along the waterway and the fine depth of field that shows the entire scene in very sharp detail. Best of luck in the contest.

This is a beautiful scene with the river running through it. It's a very nice angle of shot , well focused, this image is clear, exposure is correct, the colors and tones appear natural.
It's such a lovely blue sky with the white cloud detail and the river reflects it back beautifully.
Well composed and presented!
