 I thought that I should step out of my comfort zone and do something other than macros for the free study. What's more anti-macro than a landscape, right?

Nice shot Shane too bad it just got buried in the mix. However placing as high as you did is a great accomplishment.

Your horizon is a little tilted. This is a very nice picture, I really like it, but I think competition is tough - good luck!

Serene and very pretty. The reflection is spot on. There seems to be a slight tilt to the horizon though.
