I like this Joan and the title is very good. Nice composition with the center weighted reflection, and lovely coloring of the water and foliage.

You might try opening the shadows and cutting down on the highlights with the shadows/highlights tool. Just about 5% or 6% on both applied only to the top half of the image from the water line up.

This will reveal a lot more of the details in the clouds and in the trees.

Where did you take this lovely shot? #1391772

Thanks Dale & Rita. I have always loved this building, the way it undulates along the shoreline. This was taken from the Muskoseepie Park path system just across from our campground in Grande Prairie AB. #9519826
