Bow Bridge, NY's Central Park, after a storm. 2/9/16 (PL)

I was there intent on shooting a red-headed woodpecker that was seen earlier in the week at the feeders. I waited 90 minutes and it was a no-show, and it was raining lightly. I decided to leave, and took the path out of the park that went along the north side of the lake. As I turned a corner in the path I came upon this scene. I quickly unpacked my camera, and put a 24-70 on it. This was one take, as the sky changed and it had a totally different look to it, and a slight breeze kicked up and put ripples in the water and the magic was gone. . .
Nikon D800, Nikkor 24-70 F2.8 AF-S, 1/125, F11, ISO 400, 24mm. Three vertical shots merged and edited in Lightroom, then moved to On1 for detail, sharpening, contrast enhancement, color enhancing, etc.

Magnificent work! The lighting was just right and the reflection is incredible.

Thanks! Mostly a function of the right place at the right time. I have dozens of shots on all seasons that I've taken from this exact point, but none look like this. And to think I almost took the right fork instead of left . . .

What a fantastic photo. If I was forced at gunpoint to pick out a flaw I would say maybe the shadow detail could be raised ever so slightly.

Thanks! The printed versions has more shadow detail, btw.

Where the 3 shots "lantdscape focus stacking" or "depth of field focus stacking" to get such wonderful depth of field?
