God that's pretty Chuck ... what a setting to fish in. Like the way you composed this with the evergreen up front right. It's like I'm actually standing there GREEN with envy of that lucky guy tryin' his luck. Just beautiful.

Just an old "Grampa" who still has a Kodak "Box" camera kicking around the attic ... learning and enjoying the wonders of modern digital photography.

WOW Chuck, this is amazing. The colors, clarity, lighting with reflection in the water and that beautiful tree in the foreground. It's perfection at its best. What a great post. Thanks for sharing this beauty.

Nice one, Chuck. They say a bad day fishing is better than a good day at work :) Well done.

Great shot Chuck. I love the reflection. For this picture it is all we need to see as it makes the whole picture, and yet, I know damn well that if i had done it, i would have had to add everything bar the kitchen sink to that lake......I am glad you didn't, it is a great shot.

Wow. I like the DOF. Do you know what f-stop you took this at? The clear capture of that spruce in the right forfront is awesome. Beautiful scenery, Chuck.

WOW is right, and I'm sad that everyone else got here before me....lol...I agree with all above, especially about the DOF as your eye gets taken along to the distant point of the water beginning, as everyone has said, with that marvelous tree on the right. It is SOOO clear, as is the gentle water and the reflections it's holding, out to the brilliant greens of the well watered grasses on the left to the lucky duck out there having the time of his life fishing ( and if he isn't he'd better have a good reason..lol) then on to the more troubled water that leads to that point and then opens up to the angles of the tall pines that continue to bolster the beauty of this pic with their own interesting placement, tiered up the gentle slopes in a funneled triangle, finally opening up to the hills far off in the distance. I'm out of breath...:)PJ

Hey Chuck

What a lovely little hide away. I can't believe how clear the water is. You've captured it very well for the rest of us to enjoy.

Thanks

Beautiful composition, color and clarity Chuck. A very nice shot. Where's Mix Lake neighbor? I've not heard of it. I live in Highlands Ranch. anne :-)

Don't tell me it's good, tell me what is good about it. Don't tell me it stinks, tell me what I can do do improve it. Thank you for taking the time to tell me anything at all. Be blessed. anne :-)
