Sunrise Lake

Pretty scene Steve, and nicely composed.

Very nice and calm scene. You could crop a little from the right. Maybe darkening the sky a little might also bring back some details there and make it a bit stronger. Just some thoughts.

I'm a sucker for reflections, and this one has it all: fog in bkgd, mist along the shore and perfect reflections of the trees. Great shot.

Nice capture Steve. Great timing. Taken from enough height of camera above ground level to just have the dead fall clear the tippy tip of the top most tree in the reflection. I might have tried a scooch higher with the camera to give a wee bit more separation of the deadfall from the tree line. But that is my only nit which makes it minor indeed. I like the way the other deadfall leads into the image and the rock in the foreground angles in to the center deadfall. Great reflection. I agree with Andreas regarding the sky, toning it down, darkening the clouds would give the sky more mood and make it more dramatic.

I like the Zen-ness that the foreground objects add to the scene. My only though would be to crop from the right to make them more centered in the frame.
