nice image but for me missing more of the dark tones, great sharpness and focus where it's supposed to be, would have been stronger for me if the background tree weren't there

Thanks much for the comments and votes. Not quite square, Anita - 4:5 ratio. I do actually have a square one. I favor 2:3 or wider for landscape, too, but in this case the "stuff" on the left is regrettable and on the right it's just empty field. I tried and tried for a composition that felt balanced and was wider, but couldn't find one.

So very pretty and simple, I’m just not a big fan of square crops never have been. Would of prefer this in landscape. 6

took FOREVER to load .. slow internet .. so i was only seeing the top half for a long time .
then the pond came into view .. and the really lovely composition ..
this is very lovely .. and your black and white edit is perfect .. subdued and appropriate .. obviously my personal opinion ..
i'm not voting yet .. :)
