This is nice, Sandy. Sort of Zen-like with the one solid visual anchor and the rest of the scene sort of nebulous in relation to it.

Nice shot Sandy, the right side is a little light in terms of balance. All of your reflection and cloud lines lead your eye to that side, and when you get there its a little dissapointing.
Nice colours on the left as well...

That's a solid and pleasing shot, Sandy. I might darken the blues in the sky just a hint and raise that saturation of lake a little as well.

Non-literal, artistic rendition of the Fall season.

I love it Sandy. I notice a quality of depth, too, that is very special in the way it happens upon gazing into the scene. Terrific accomplishment on this one!

I love the balance between the trees on the left and mountains on the right. Beautiful mood with the light and fog.

A beautiful shift from all the winter images Sandy. Quite nice!

Looks like a beautiful morning, Sandy. I really like the fog and the nice cloud reflection in the lake.

I find this picture very attractive... Maybe, a little crop at the bottom to make a perfect symmetry between the landscape and its reflection could further improve the sense of suspension and the "zen" feeling of the image... I also like the pale colors and the little island in the background... Very nice.

You've been knocking them out of the park with your recent posts, Sandy. The comp and conditions are superb.

nice - very nice, Sandy. With all the bright tones, I'm thinking I like to see the midtones darkened just a little - a matter of personal taste, but it might make the image 'pop' even more. Tony Kuyper's luminosity masks would work well for that here.

What a delightful fall scene Sandy, the clouds add so much here! The mountain in the distance balances the cloud directions, and mass of color on the left.
