Velocity Reflects

I am getting close to the end of picking through the images from a July trip to the San Juans for summer wildflowers. (Are fall colors not but a month away?)  Here is one that interested me when I took it, because of the shape of the snowbank mirrored in the reflection.  As always, suggestions and critiques are invited.

Other images from the trip on the website gallery.  http://www.plateaulightphotography.com/Landscapes/coloradolandscapes/San-Juan-Mountains-July-2015/50884770_trt376#!i=4231617838&k=8j67PrM

Very nice collection, Doug!  I didn't get beyond Crested Butte this year (but it was verrrry nice!).  For your posted shot (Velocity Reflection), what do you think of cropping the bottom a bit to just below the trail?  On American Night, I like how the creek & Milky Way are reflections of each others' curves.  Esspen Bouquet & Softly Comes Morning are probably my favorites.

Monika, thanks for the feeedback.  I'll play with various crops off the bottom and see what balances well.
