Reflections on Spring

Mirror Lake, Yosemite.

Harley and I wandered up to Mirror Lake one morning in early May. I liked the pastel hues in the trees and the gentle reflection in the lake.

Preston,

I think "gentle" is a very good adjective for this. Gentle and subtle. I like the mood a lot. Beautiful image. No suggestions.

Lovely detail and soft light. Not really exciting, but certainly authentic. Good work.

Very soft peaceful image with a nice reflection. I don't know if it is me or and optical illusion but it looks like it needs a little rotation.

The scene has a very peaceful, natural feel to it that keeps me looking, and that's a good thing. Always enjoy your work Preston. Well done.

The thumbnail does not come across near as nice as the larger version on this one, Preston. The soft & even light makes the scene very peaceful to view.......

I really like the soft glow in both the vegetation and the reflection. Very easy on the eyes.

Love the soft light and the wonderful quiet mood your image provides, Preston. Not a big deal, but I might consider burning those few small areas of bright reflection at the water's edge to left of center. Wonderful as it stands though.
