A very calm and misty dawn on Rydal Water in the English Lake District. All comments welcome.

Very nice. Very quiet. Leaning just a hair to the left maybe?

I would rotate it very slightly clockwise.

Thanks for the comments. I will have a look at the reflections to see if I am a tad squint, one of my frequent faults. I think that I may also crop a slight bit off of the top and bottom.

Very beautiful, and "painterly" in the very best sense.

Stunningly beautiful!

It's lovely. I might straighten it, although the adjustment will be small; I wouldn't crop it.

Very pleasing. I don't see any reason to crop.

Thanks for pointing it out I was 0.5 degree off. I have also darkened some of the bright reflections a tad. I think that it will print nicely on a soft textured paper and then I await some judge telling me, with a sniff, that the horizon is in the middle. ( looked too soft and flat on matte paper, printed on Fibre Gold Silk, looks nice but it still looks nicer as a digital image not something I am used to seeing)

+++! The definition of serenity. (I'd love to spend a lifetime fishing and hiking around that lake. It looks so idyllic.)

Lovely, well done.

I like the scene and the composition but imo it lacks saturation and contrast. I am obviously in a minority of one. B&W? Regarding a tilt then I didn't see one and being a little bit off means it isn't worth commenting on. Ironically I sometimes think that some of my images tilt a little but when I overlay the grid in LR or PS there isn't any.
-
Stamper I agree totally about the lack of contrast and saturation but increasing either loses whatever magic the image may have, or it does in my eyes.

The high contrast B&W style works perfectly for Stamper's images, but this one really needs the soft, pastel look which, as you say, gives it the magic.

Great stuff, Ken: inspiring.

very nice

I agree completely. High contrast has its place, as Stamper frequently demonstrates, but the key phrase for this one is gives it the magic.

Went back down to Rydal before dawn today hoping for some mist on the water but no luck. The water was very calm. As you can see Autumn colours are just starting although the bracken has completely changed from green to brown. The first 2 shots were from April last year.
