While hiking to the far shore of Lake Louise I was intrigued by the snow melt streams and sandy deposits as well as the reflections off the far shore. All comments welcome.>=))>

Beautiful work, Bill. I wouldn't change a thing.

Gorgeous colours Bill and a nice curving shoreline to show off a pleasing abstracted appearance.

Bill: love the subject and the composition. On my calibrated monitor, I see a faint cyan color cast which is most noticeable in the sand. Richard

Wonderful patterns you isolated here.  The muted reflections are also very nice. The contrasting colors work so well together, nothing I would change.  Soothing patterns and tones.

If I hadn't been there, I wouldn't believe the color.  Love the shapes and patterns.

Bill,

Wonderful!  Never would have thought Lake Louise here and certainly I've never seen anything quite like this presented from there.

Terrific color here and I think you've composed this perfectly with a great balance between shore and water and the wonderful, graceful curves tying them together.  Just wonderful.  Also no nits.

I like this large scale abstract a lot Bill.  All the elements fit together like a puzzle.

Lovely Bill.  The color and curves are so appealing in this.  This is one of those images you just sit and ponder for a while.  My only idea would be to perhaps crop from the top a bit to remove/reduce the white area in the ULC.

This is spectacular, Bill.  Love the gentle and quiet feeling that this view creates.

Excellent use of colors and curves.  Your image catches my attention each time I look at the landscape page.
