A murmur in the trees to note
Not loud enough for wind
A star not far enough to seek
Nor near enough to find

Abosolutely beautiful. I almost didn't see the figure in the foreground.

Similar in many thematic ways to your previous but how much difference a color makes . . the blue offers this a somber and melancholy mood. Beautifully done.

The shades seize of the river and the blue one is combined with the black to describe the landscape in the form of poetry.
Warm greetings

Blue light til dawn. What an amazing yet meditating & soothing beauty. Perfect coolness while the days over getting hotter & hotter. Love how it pulls me into the wide open country & these romantic dreams. Great, great & great, Sharon! All the best & safe travels, Fritsch.

I like the tones and the silhouette of the lonely fisherman.

The tones are quite beautiful. The mood is serene. Love the tree line and that aura of light in caping the horizon.
Lovely Monday Sharon.

Gorgeous! Just a perfect composition, the fine line of trees reflected at the horizon. Your tones are wonderful, everything held at just the right exposure and timing on the fading light. The figure adds the human dimension. Excellent.

A wonderful composition with a great tone and mood...silence is the first thing that comes to mind as the image opens up and reflecting I guess would be the most natural thing to do in such a place! Lovely work, as one always expects to see here:)

@Pavan Kaul: Thanks so much...appreciated :)
I like the inky blue of the sky and the almost unnoticable figure in the right foreground.
12 Jul 2010 5:16pm

12 Jul 2010 7:28pm
I like that deep dark and low light...
12 Jul 2010 8:48pm
So still, so peaceful, so beautiful. Exquisite work.
12 Jul 2010 9:20pm

Somptuous................Between Quietness and velvet..........So nice picture....
13 Jul 2010 6:23am

@Hiro: Thank you :) No, this was around twight...just before the night fell.

Great work as always, I love the light in this shot :D
15 Jul 2010 3:37pm
As if the lake had eye-lashes... Love the dark tones melted with absolute quietness.
And i love the very narrow path i (believe that I) see in the background... For a swan to leave or reappear...
15 Jul 2010 6:02pm
what a place! Incredible! It must be so peaceful there!
