Very nice! I like the shadowa on the water. This looks so serene. Thanks for sharing this beautiful place.

Wow this is wonderful. Very peaceful and serene. Love the lush green. The swans are an added bounus.

It certainly is peaceful and serene. The swans provide an elegant subject and the wandering waterway pulls us into the point where the vertical willow branches and the brown of the structure make a fine focal point.

This is paradise on earth, so peaceful and serene !
Most important is how the photographer captured this scenery with inspiration.
beautiful indeed.

THis is a near perfect photo! The whole setting, the way things fit together...its almost like a painting...the swans are gorgeous...the old house hidden in the trees, and those gorgeous lilypads...wow...this is just magnificient!!

What a beautiful serene photo.. I love this.. it looks so calm and peaceful, a great place to sit with your thoughts... great colour, lighting and composition... I wish I was there right now... love it.. its on my desktop..

The weeping willow that frames in the back of the photo leading into the blue clearing is the cincher for me on this all beautiful composition. Simon, this is about at picturesque as it gets. Lovely work and you know the rest. ;)

Thank you all very much - I am truly grateful for such lovely comments :-)

Beautiful serene photo. Lovely nature desktop

Idyllic and restful...a lovely scene well-captured.

Almost picture perfect! <sigh> in the right place at the right time with the right camera.

A very nice scenery, Simon. Beautiful light :-)

As a desktop background, this tranquil setting nicely offsets the stress of a chaotic office. Thanks for creating it.

Thanks everyone - you're very kind :-)

Really like this one Simon. Great lighting and contrast with having to work with nothing but green colors. Very picturesque. Perspective and framing all in order.
