Syrupy smooth with delicious colours in the sky which shout for attention in a delightfully understated way.

Smooth shot and could be in any colour you like and still be beautiful.

The colors and movement in the clouds work very well here, Roel. It's also neat that you've got good color in the reflections. The wet stone make a great foreground who's solid sharpness contrasts well with the motion in the sky. Very nicely captured and presented.

Beautiful color and light. I like the way the motion of the sky and the water compliment each other.

A truly wonderful image, Roel. Sometimes a simple composition and soft light can say a lot - this is one such case. The rocks take you into the mystery of the purple water. :toast:

Very soothing colors and the dynamic sky works well with the calmness of the water. Takes me from winter for a while.

What a surreal and dreamy capture Roel. I like your vision on this capture, and the execution of the that vision is excellent. I would say this image is very soothing to the soul, and sweet work in photography. :toast:

Lovely. Simple, yet not so. This has a fine dynamic, yet peaceful feel.

Beautiful comp and light. The static rock with the moving clouds works extremely well.
