Fabulous! It looks like a painting. Very, very nice work. You should definitevely hang this on your walls. Great work.

Absolutely LOVE this painterly photograph!!! Even without a definite subject it's great. Very romantic and dreamlike. The pastel and muted colors are wonderful and the light is equisite! I can't say enough about how I feel about it...maybe my all time favorite on DPC.

very atmospheric but a tad too much sky?

A fine image and a worthwhile concern. The wall of cedars (?) in the background is subtle enough, through the fog, to miss.

Because of this, the diffusion of tones toward the background, I would consider including a little more of the better defined and more vivid water plants in the very front row, if the composition by thirds tolerated it.

The misspelled title is an unfortunate slip.

Great composition and use of negative space. Details are amazing. Not sure if the fog/haze affected the sky or not but I would have liked to see a bit more blue up there as that would complemented the green at the bottom quite nicely.

Lovely photograph. Moody and quiet. Nice job of focusing. I like it and will not lower your score for spelling your title wrong, after all, what are editors for anyway? It would be interesting to see what would happen if you increased the saturation a bit.

Great atmosphere, lovely depth due to mist and colors. The sky looked very strange at first, but with your explanation that it was trees and not sky, I now see it. Such a wonderful picture from such a simple scene.

Beautiful... The greatest challenge to me was always to capture haze on a camera and make it look as good as it does in real life. Suggestion: Gaussian blur the top half until you get a uniform gradient of colour; the slight detail is somewhat distracting

a little too much sky

I might not have left as much dead space on the top. I like the colors and the foggy effect.

This is my kind of image, almost like a painting but retaining good detail.
Great work

mmmm, nice composition and detail, but lacking in something. I think the sky is too dull to have given it so much room.

Cool shot! I love the layers of clarity due to the fog, absolutely remarkable.
Just as a side notes, it looks like the swamps in The Lord of the Rings.

isn't this pretty! reminds me of some of my favorite New England pond spots. the dof is perfectly done to draw you into the scene.

Don't look like they're disappearing ;) nice feel to the shot, like the muted colors.

I suggest a tighter cropping at the top. However, overall, this picture is beautiful. The subtle colors and the filter that the mist creates are awesome.
