Stunning!!! #10696579frank w. degenhardt May 17, 2013
Gorgeous composing Susan. I just love the peaceful feeling the picture gives off. A few things that I love about the picture is the distance the ducks are apart and how that leaves the long trail of water action that is caused by their swimming. Then there is the reflections of the trees. And I so love that gorgeous tone and glow. Quite beautiful my friend. #10697506Daniel Ruf May 19, 2013
