Great shot, Ed. Those clouds were pretty awesome. It was nice to try and shoot something in the middle of the day. I like your comp much better than mine. You've made the lily pads much more of an important FG element, while mine seem tucked in a corner. I think this would make for a great B&W conversion.

Pretty scene Ed. Nice clouds and trees along the shoreline. I really like the scattered lily pads in the front leading into the scene.

Ed, Great work capturing this in the mid-day light. I like it a lot and love the inviting feel it has. The clouds really add to the scene and I also like the lily pads in the foreground. This makes me want to paddle my canoe right into this scene. Your large version is beautiful and as I said...so inviting. Guess we don't always have to put our cameras away during the middle part of the day.

Sweet little lake. I love the bit of land and trees coming in from the left. Excellent comp with the lovely sky.

This is a beautiful scene, Ed. It looks like a wonderful place to enjoy a quiet morning. This image captures that feeling well. You handled the contrast in the scene well. I like the wispy cirrus clouds in the sky.

A very peaceful, lovely scene and well captured. It makes me want to be there. The reeds and lily pads make a nice foreground interest, the lake and trees make a leading line to draw you into the image and the sky adds the frosting.

A wonderful location. The water, especially, looks so inviting. The lily pads are a nice addition. Photographs such as this one is what makes being outdoors so enjoyable.

This looks like a very peaceful and relaxing lake. As mentioned before, the lily pads lead you into the scene. I can imagine the Muskie and Pike beneath the surface!

Looks like a great day to enjoy the beauty. The lily pads and young reeds make for a nice sprinkled foreground.
