Into the voting, the score is okay. From the comments, I note that my style and location are highly recognizable. That's okay. But, 4 million people do visit RMNP each year. This could be a tourist snapshot by one of many people. There were a dozen photographers standing near me at the moment of capture.

If this was taken with an iPhone, you need to place a call to S.J.

Ah, you've been a regular to Sprague lately, Richard! It's a pretty scene, but I think your other reflections have been more successful.

Beautiful processing, Richard. I assume you'll get hammered for not being "symmetrical" enough. Meanwhile, I have a totally asymmetrical riverscape made symmetrical by a perfect reflection, and processed over-the-top. Let's see who scores higher; I'm curious. Feel free to chat with me on this.

And if you're NOT Richard Hahn reading this, for gawdsake let me know willya?

Meanwhile, I love the asymmetrically symmetrical kind of take on things, so this is an 8 from me.
