Beautiful shot Lyn! I could sit there a good long while and soak it all in. Rich colors and excellent clarity.

I can't believe they cut the trees just to improve the view. They must have died. What a gorgeous view and colors are really great Lyn.

Great post.

Wow, what a peaceful haven that is. The title makes me think of Milford Haven in Wales, which is home to oil refineries and constant tanker traffic. This couldn't be more different - wonderful sense of calm and a great angle - I like the inclusion of the bleached tree trunks in the foreground especially.

Stunning shot, Lyn. Just out of curiosity are those weatherd stumps or petrified? Great composition and breathtakeing colors. Great job.
