Beautiful! I love the purple tones of this shot. The reflections are beautiful, especially the purple clouds. The composition is well balanced with the tree on the left of the trees in the middle. Horizon above 50% is perfect. Love it!

will you look at those reflections!! superb. So beautifully perfect. Blue and green are anyway a special combination, I often use on 'abstract' pattern type of pictures, but those reflections look like a second island.

Marvellous pic... excellent composition...amazing sky colours..trees at the back are looking in a proper curve and their reflections are giving beautiful impact...and then trees in the foreground make it a well balanced click

The lake really earned its name on this evening. The calm water gives you great reflections. I like the composition and the beautiful color palette.

Beautiful view Pat the colors of sky and water are subtle against the green island with reflection. Lovely composition and your white balance and exposure are spot on.

Very beautiful capture here of the calm on this lake. No wonder they call it reflections! Looks like glass or a mirror on the water. Great depth with the weeds up front and the trees behind. Pretty colors too.

Again, outstanding composition. All the rules followed, thus making this one beautiful shot. I see you did a cinematic scale, or, not sure, a panoramic scale. Doesn't really matter, it is beautiful and soothing with the color combination. you must now live alone or have a very, very patient husband who loves you deeply. I suggest you attend, and that comment may raise ire or fear, just consider it. Reasons for my five star vote.

    Thank you so much Carl! Well he makes a lot of extra stops for me and I spend lots of time fishing with him, it works out pretty well! He is supportive of my little hobby and I am supportive of his.

    You are welcome Pat and it looks like you two have it all worked out. That's nice and kudos to you both.

Very, very pretty!
The left hand tree, really keep your eye on the photo while you take it all in, making you linger. I really like the reflections. Just beautiful.
The blues with their touches of pink, and greens with their touches of yellow, work so wonderfully together to bring a serene photograph.
Nice AlaskaPat, I can imagine if we were able to view this in a large on the wall format, it would be stunning! It's just so peaceful, to view.

Keep creating,
Ann, OpenroadFootprint

Pat,
A beautiful & very peaceful view over the very aptly named Reflections lake the blue sky & the surrounding trees reflected on it's glassy surface The trees in the foreground completing the frame. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera technique & sharp focus.
