      Stunning "mood" captured in this shot, André. Pastel colours and your crop works beautifully. WD

      simply gorgeous mood and light, with the reflection taking it to another level my only nit here is that the detail on the ducks seem very smooth...could be crisper? did you run NR on them? ------------------------------ Morkel Erasmus Rom 1:20"...his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made..."

      Thanks for comments. There was mist on the water so the ducks are a little soft but I think adds to the mood.

      You created a soft and dreamy image and that was also your intention. It looks a bit like a painting - I think this works quite well.
