Wow, that turned out neat! Absolutely lovely balance in the whole thing. Your composition is really, really good. This is just so easy to look at, an absolute pleasure. Smooth and soft, quiet and almost surreal.
I'd be interested in knowing how much the Orton effect changed it, but it sure turned out great. I hope you print it out (big) and hang it somewhere.

Nick, loving the images, the reflections are great, but what I really enjoy about this image is the mood. The red spot, I call it a spot, I have no clue what it is . . . but it adds to the image. Did you use a filter for this?

Very nice composition, Nick with the near symmetry and the converging lines. Best of all though is the mood you have captured. Well done.!! Chet

Stunning, very effective with the low angle. Were you laying in the water? Exceptional DOF those trees just draw your eyes right down the lane.

Nice POV. It certainly gives it a different feel.

I like the sense of mystery in this image as well Nick as well as your low perspective.

The low vantage point and the reflection in the water makes this a great image. Well done!
