Just picture perfect, and I love the 'simplicity' of this one, very much.....

This image is deceptively powerful. It is quiet and subdued tot he point of being almost matter-of-fact, yet something in it is singing. I imagine it is even more wonderful when seen at a larger size, when the dusting of snow on the trees has a chance to assert itself in counterpoint to the almost total lack of detail elsewhere. It's not every day a totally blown out sky actually works, but it sure does here :-)

Really interesting image... the way the sky and the water are virtually a blank canvas interrupted by the two lines of trees along the shore thrusting into the centre of the frame... it's very interesting.
