Great reflections in the photos, looks like a nice serene place to take a walk.

All nice. Photo #1 with stump has a subject. I wish it was balance a bit different with the thirds.

Meives, I agree...just wasn't sure how to do that...I was so intrigued with the "stump" and the coloring...thanks though!

Very nice. I live in York and drive past that lake quite often - never realizing what a photographic treasure it is.

I've never been there in the winter ...it's really beautiful and such a nice walk around the lake...it's really beautiful in spring and summer!

Love #2 and 3 The stump breaking the horizon is distracting because the background is also in focus so I don't know what to look at. Since you were enamored by the stump shoot at a shallow depth of field and get closer to the stump. We will then be able to see what you loved about it. Nice work.

Jambulee, thanks for the suggestion..may have to go back and do just that! of course it may be a little different since it's finally supposed to snow here! I appreciate your input

I don't know if I agree with your statement. Portraits often have a soft background. I have seen nice landscapes with subject up front and all clear and focused.

Meives, Thanks for your comment...I'm open to any all critiques....I guess it's really what is intriguing and interesting to the viewer's eyes....I just want to learn as much as I can from other people....I appreciate your input!

Hi Meives if you read again what I wrote you will see I have suggested will get the same result you are suggesting Shallow depth of field (f5.6 to 8) on the stump will produce a nice soft background.
