Nikon D300, Nikkor 17-55 @55mm. F/10, 1/30, ISO 400.

The setting sun painted golden light on the birch trees, creating a magical scene. Hope you enjoy it, comments appreciated.

Albert:
Glorious light, nicely reflected by the water. Also like the 's' shape shoreline. Wonderfully captured.

A little peice of home, eh Albert? Canada has how many quadrillion ponds like this? You captured a good natural scene.

Wonderful light and comp. In addition to the light, I like the curve of lake bank. If this were mine, I'd consider an alternate, semi-pano crop which eliminates the sky from the bottom.

Very nice Albert. I might crop a little off the btm to remove the sky but it's an excellent image as is. Great job of capturing that awesome light and I like how the shoreline slinks away to the distant right. :toast:

Albert, what I like most in this image is the quality of light and in particular the golden reflections in the water.

Despite the warm light for some reason this image has a cold feel to it. Maybe it's the bare trees, nice mood and image Albert.

Very peaceful scene with beautiful soft light. I find myself attracted most to the reflection and wonder about adding a bit more mid-tone contrast. That might help balance the interest between the trees up top and their reflections.
