This image has really good horizontal lines that just seem to go from top to bottom. The mist softens them, and at the same time strengthens them. The there's the color. Great job, Randy.
Beautiful capture, Randy! I'm really loving the calmness and tranquility your image expresses, and the overall composition. I especially like the rising mist from the water, and the sepia toning. Nice framing, and your image would make for an outstanding desktop as well. Very well done! :)

I don't think I would have pegged the thumbnail as yours, Randy. This seems different for you, but I am glad to see it. I think the image is excellent for the sepia toning. It seems to emphasize a feeling of warmth arriving with the sun and it helps accentuate the mist rising from the water. A very fine post.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
