Wooowwww how special is this one!?! No wonder you were taken with the reflections, but the curves and contrasting colours are just stunning. Those patches of yellow sand in the lake set it off beautifully. There's a tiny bit of lens vignetting in the corners - I often get the same thing when I use a polariser - but I actually think it adds something here as it echoes the arch of the trees. Stunning work my friend, +fav.

Hey PJ,
very nice reflections on the water, but when i see this wonderful landscape picture, i think i stay in the water. I would say, the reason is the frame. I like it much more without this frame.

Mercy, what a gorgeous photo. Love the reflections, sand bar, trees starting to turn, bend in river, sky, framing and of course the title. If I left anything out it's because my memory gets a little foggy from time to time. You sure are talented, but I knew that from the avie's you made for me. Lovely post.

To be honest PJ I hate autumn / fall
It reminds me that winter will soon be here !! However I like this because of the lovely little island, and bold blue sky reflecting in the still water along with the trees reflection. :d
