This is one of those images which you could crop any which way and it would still be gorgeous. Congrats on the blue. I'd miss these as well.

Glad that this captured the Blue. The scene captures the warmth and elegant beauty of the enjoying a moment of Earth's natural charms - from the beautiful warm colors of the sky to the lovely reflections upon the lake to the elegance of the creatures basking on the shore. Congrats on such a wonderful capture.

Congrats Bear. Beautiful light and portrait works perfectly here
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 09/05/2014 12:16:41 AM
I did not have time to mention that i recognized Bear's fingerprints or that I would have added to the title: we called them "swans", they called us "men"
Robert, younmake your neck of the woods famous, again!

At first I thought this was a crop of the last blue ribbon shot, but I see it was a different lens. Hey, when you have a beautiful scene in front of you why not. Congrats

Roberto, this is magnificent!! I'm seriously hoping you post a note or two on how you processed this...it's outstanding!

The horizon seems slightly tilted, but otherwise, this is great. I appreciate the somewhat muted tones. I also like that you didn't lighten up the bottom of the image where the geese are. They're not the subject here; they're merely observers.
