Gorgeous image...congrats on the yellow ribbon!!!

Yes!!! Very nice to see a ribbon for you on this. I think you need to patent or trademark or copyright this lake, or something. Now I'm curious about how many minutes or seconds apart were this shot and mine?

Simple, clean and elegant. Minimalism beautifully captured. Love how the trees emerge from the soft white environment. Nice touch with the three trees that are in the foreground that seem to come/ step forward towards us.
