Beautiful, as usual... I really like the light and dark contrast in the backgroud clouds as well as the little patches of ice on the main lake (around the rocks)....

Thank you for the comments DDA.

Actually,what you refear to as little patches of ice,is small waves (a bit windy that day too) crashing on the rocks,they have been blured out though (intensionally,low iso & filters) so the water looks much smoother and tranquil.
Rough water doesn`t usualy add any beauty to a picture (exept of certain ocasions ofcours).

I appreciate you taking the time to notice these things,it means alot.

I really like it a lot. Nice capture. Moody and tranquil at the same time.

Beautiful shot. The ND filter certainly helped bring the whole scene into the dynamic range of the camera. Sharp from front to back, you can even make out the arches on the old bridge in the background.
