Those are some awesome looking rocks in the mid ground. Where is this?
An almost perfect reflection.

Thanks Nicolaus! This is Arda river in Eastern Rhodope Mountain, Bulgaria.

nice reflection and nice lines. i might be inclined to try dodging the hills slightly.

Id dodge the hills too--and personally i think this would be much stronger as a vertical (mid section) cause the sides are relatively boring compared to the central third. Neat shot!

Boris, beautiful reflections and detail in the rocks. The larger verion is nice, I'd like to see it lighten up just a little. nice work.

A very nice B&W, Boris. I like that my eye is drawn into where the rock meets the water and trying to figure out where the reflection starts. The rocks patters are very engaging and the mirror reflection is awesome. The large version of this is excellent and really shows off the contrast and details very well. I also love the perfect symmetry of the comp, which seems to have a very calming effect. I really felt drawn into this image and loved exploring all around it. A beautiful image.

B&W certainly brings out the wonderful lines that comprise the scene, Borish, and there is a bit of symmetry that enhances the look. I like it. Can't think of anything I'd change.

Very nice B&W scene with the glass like reflections and I like how the composition moves you into the center of the image, the only thing missing is some nice swirling clouds but a fine shot as is, I would not change a thing, well seen, well done.

Thank you all! Jim, I will definitely go back there for a nice sunrise or sunset with some clouds when the conditions are right. But now that spot is under the water. Will try again in the end of Summer or Winter when rain is seldom.
