You never know what you might find in and around a Northern Swamp. One thing you won't find much of is that lovely green material floating on top of the water, or at least we hope not!! Thought you might enjoy this placid view !! :)

Awesome shot PJ
Great scenery with a brilliant reflection across the water. Put in some wildlife, or a angler fishing then You would get 10/10.

It looks pretty nice for a swamp. I don't usually think of them as attractive, but you have made this one seem so with the perpective and the lush greens and the beautifully reflected sky.

Beautiful photo! More of a lake than a swamp I'd have imagined - a swamp reminds me of some green stuff floating around with clouds of mosquitoes ;)

Hey PJ,
I like this swamp, lovely reflections too,
This is where I think HDR is useful as the sky is blown out, there is much more detail in the reflections than in the sky itself, perhaps something to try out, (~8
Nicely done,

Thanks for sharing
