Thanks for the comments all. These images are pretty much "as is" when they came out of the camera. I believe the only PP done was a few dust spot removals, crop, and some light NR on the background. Frankly, I'm not that good with Photoshop! So I count on my photographic skills to get it right out of the camera :)

Lots of great images to vote from. It was a tough choice ... I did choose yours for its simplicity and beauty, even though as you stated was not simple at all to capture. Good Luck.

Amazing. The exposure is perfect and the reflection is a plus. I will definitely vote for your image.
