Jeff, what a nice view of Stanley Lake, and Mt. McGowen in the background. Thanks for your comments about my shot of the Stanley area. I've spent some time there every summer for the last 27 years. It's one of my favorite places in the world, too. Good work. Beautiful photo. Nathan Smith
I applauded you in fitting such majesty into a photograph. I too have fallen in love with these mountains and I must say you do them justice. I love the tree off to the side of the picture pulled back like a stage curtain making way for the main event. That quiet observer blends the elements of the landscape beautifully and serves as the perfect frame.
This shot (aside from the beautiful reflections and the lovely mountain contrasting with the green grass middle) would not have made such an impact without the foreground tree limb that you got in there. It makes the image I think.
Gottaagree. Those leaves you used for framing on the right really frame this photo. The captured reflections on the water are fantistic. A beautiful blend of color and composition. Well done.
