Lovely composition - particularly appreciated at this extremely grey season of the year !!!
Jess, you end up amongst my Friends !!!

now here is something i don't see near often enough!
the willow!
faved it!!

Lovely spot. I really like the idea of viewing down the river towards the bridge through the willow as it were. The bridge is not quite as well-defined as I would like, but this may be my screen and/or my eyes. I'd like to see a bit more of the tree - I want to step back. I also might try to move the tree more to the side so it is framing the view towards the bridge more and not quite as central as it is now. I'm not seeing it all at once, but it seems a bit too central as far as I can tell. Other than that, I like the light on the water and the green is wonderfully lush looking. I wish the image were a bit taller to avoid the black top and bottom. Because there's always something top or bottom on my screen, this always makes me feel my desktop is unbalanced, but I think this must be a personal quirk so I don't think most people would mind at all. The ducks are a great touch!

It's very peaceful and serene. I especially like the way you caught the wind blowing. I think the grass is a little too bright for the rest of the picture though.

Awsome composition.. well done

Very tranquil calming, this is such a wonderful shot and very soothing to the eye. It is nature at its best. This will make a great desktop.

This is beautiful :-)

I have always loved the willow tree and this one is quite sizeable and looks great with all that lush greenery surrounding and the pond and ducks add to the appeal as well...good shot and thanks for sharing.:Pat.
