I wonder, are here any fish and waves in this lake ever? It is so crystal clear, it makes my own reflection in a mirror look bad (and I quite like me). But I cant help wonder, is the boat actually seaworthy? Or will it sink upon first launch. Because if it wernt seaworthy, this photo would totally be better with a person drowning in the lake...

I like the boat but its full of water. Not so serene for the owner I think but I still like the picture. I would like to see more color or contrast tho.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Wonderful exposure and good use of the extra-wide. Fantastic!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/03/2009 01:05:45 AM
Wow... The still water gives the feel of silence in this photo...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 02/02/2009 03:27:27 PM
Certainly very serene, but I find the border rather intrusive

  Photographer found comment helpful.

great shot. a little foreground subject, but not too dominating- great sky/clouds/contrast- great reflection- great horizon to separate the water and sky. 9 from me!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 01/29/2009 03:48:20 PM
Great reflections!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 01/28/2009 05:40:10 PM
The lighting is wonderful. I can almost feel the silence. I think this may have benefited from a slightly wider lens. Or maybe just not cramping the boat into the corner so tightly.

 01/28/2009 04:14:39 PM
Excellent depth, balance, symmetry. And silence!
