Reflection in a reservoir, taken on a hike this weekend. I like the color version a lot better but thought that this b/w version was more "silent" and serene from the challenge description so I went with this version.

Maybe many have told you but I find the horizon in the middle not a very good choice. More space on top would give a deeper feeling for me. But that's just me. It works good in BW. Good luck 6
