How I miss the snow...this is just beautiful. Very serene - I can feel the crisp, cold air on my skin! I shouldn't speak to soon about snow since I am probably moving back to the east very soon.

The blue sky and the tree reflections make this a wondefull image. So glad you took a walk there so i could see it to. 10 from me. Dwight.

Totally delectable. It's forecast to be 42 degrees C here today in Sydney... so you can guess where this is going straight to! D10F

Thanks Al.We had a mild winter last year so the soothsayers are predicting a bad one this winter.

And what a view it is! This is a very striking shot, but the more i look at it, the more calm i get! Makes me want to curl up next to the fire place with a mug of hot chocolate! Great photo!

Your composition is great with this image. I like that you managed to incorporate more of the tree's reflections than, say, what the guidelines would dictate. Not quite conventional, but, it really works with this photo.
Most every aspect, colour saturation, lighting and so forth is quite good.
It is almost as with a scene like this, I can't get enough detail to satisfy my mind's eye. Just that ever so little bit more clarity is what is being demanded. No offense intended, by no means ... I offer only 'constructive' comments.
Again, thank you for sharing. A very wonderful image.
