This color is almost unbelievable - it really does look like a painting. Perfect placement of the duck and I love the reflection as well. An amazing capture....(I guess it pays to get up early and catch the sunrise!).

Impressionist, yes, that's the first word which came to my thoughts... great colours, almost icy... (difficult to express yourself when it's not your mother tongue, I can tell you)... It's really beautiful Ron. Really beautiful.

Absolutely stunning shot, looks just like a painting. Printed and framed right, this would make a marvelous wall hanging. Nice one.
