Very nice! Why did you use ISO 50? If I recall correctly the 5D (like other digital camera's) loses some dynamic range when shooting at ISO 50.

A classic....I might want to see a bit less space at the bottom...this would work great as a panoramic image IMO.

Everything a photo should be. Great composition. Great light. Interesting subject matter. A mood.

I like it. :smile:

Splendid! Love the light and the castle ruins. At this scale that little red object near the dock doesn't really bother me, but I may be tempted to clone it out in a larger version if it clashed too much with these beautiful natural surroundings. Other than that, very nice shot.

You did a great job capturing some nice light.

The light and subject combine to give a very moody image. I think if you cropped the bottom you would destroy the symmetry of the reflection. I see why you shot it this way, and I think you were correct.

What wonderful light Guy. I have but one shot of kichurn castle taken more for posterity than anything else as the weather when I was there was somewhat less than inspiring. Having seen this I shall be much more easily persuaded to visit again.
