Awesome picture Robert
The still water makes for a neat reflection which You have captured well, and yes You should feel privileged to witness scenes like these. :o)
Life's around said Phil the 35 millimetre cameraman. I recently went to the doctors, and said I've got icon fever, but he told me there was no cure for the disease.
General comment to all my Caedes friends: I'm so sorry that today I have and the coming days I'll have only few time to comment on your images. I prefer to let you know this instead of not commenting at all. As soon as possible I will resume normal commenting again. Regards, Cornelius
I would rather live my life as if there is a God and die to find out there isn't, than live my life as if there isn't and die to find out there is.

And I am privileged to view a scene like this through the lens of your camera Robert.
What incredible beauty you have brought to me in this image. Everything speaks of calmness, peace, serenity and hope ...hope that everything will be OK, if only we believe. Already on my desktop for me to peruse some more and to my favorites it goes. Thank you so much for sharing this with me ;=)
Tried to get this more than once in the VB..so I could triple the top marks!...Displayed on my screen in all it's glory!...Truly wonderful work Robert old friend!....
*You will have noticed that I haven't been commenting as much on your fine images!..This is because of the pains in my hands!..the constant use of the keyboard, makes this difficult..so, my dear friends..I can only apologise to you all in advance!*

I can see why you feel priviledged to see such beauty Robert. Thank you for sharing it with us with such expertise.
This is a very beautiful image, such tranquility.
It is in my favourites.
Hey there Mister Madman, wat'cha know that I don't know
Tell me some crazy stories, let me know who runs this show
Glassy-eyed and laughing, he turns and walks away
Tell me what made you that way
Great image and I love the composition. My only question is about where the reflections in the water end in the foreground - I might have wanted to crop, but it's a minor point.
No wonder you feel amazed, Robert. I understand you very well.
Your photo captures the quiet beauty perfectly. Love the muted color, the sense of tranquility, glowing cloud edges and reflections in the still water.
So I'm supposed to be on a Caedes break at the moment but this is just too phenomenally breathtaking to ignore. A 12/10 if ever I saw one. Can I ask where you took it? Just awesome Robert, blows me away.
Anything that excites me for any reason, I will photograph; not searching for unusual subject matter, but making the commonplace unusual.

I haven't been able to float around the site for awhile ('tis tax season at work for me!), but I'm glad I found this one...straight to my favs without a second thought!!
Sorry to all...I haven't been commenting as much as I would like to lately. I'm a 9 to 5er again (actually more like 8:15 to 7:30 these days!!) Don't worry, I still see all of your wonderful posts, if only for a second.
I will begin by saying....that if I had access to all of the adjectives often use for describing beauty....in several different languages....I still would require more....because none would satisfy... what I see and would like to describe while viewing this image...this remarkable photo!!
As was said before me...you are so fortunate to have much of earths stunning beauty at your fingertips...but beyond that....
Your talents and skills demonstrated in your distinct captures of all I speak...your compositions of the beauty which surrounds you...are truly professional..... in their very nature....
Your deliveries to us in your final presentations...are breathtakingly beautiful, as are ...in this photo....together....the refined product is put up in lights for us to enjoy....;o)
Thank you....this photo could grace the cover of any National Geographic magazine....this is Robert's view of one of our earth's marvelous paintings.... and of its natural beauty.....refinement with elegance!! ;o)
