Oh, my goodness, Bev...
what a perfect title. It looks so tranquil and quiet. I love those soft ripples in the water and the fabulous reflection of the clouds. Wonderful, soft morning color, beautiful light... Jeeeze, that's pretty. I am quite envious... :))) Really lovely shot. Many thanks and warmest wishes,
Shelly

This is indeed very soothing Bev. Effective use of the rules of thirds, the diagonals from the beach is emphasized, the water ripples are well defined. Best regards...

Hi Bev,
TL learns me photography but also great english expressions like your title. This is perfectly according with your subject!
What a stunning view, your POV shows the perspective and the reflections beautifully. !And the coloured harmony with cyan and brown tones is a delight for the eyes, too! Superb image! Annie

Hi Bev,
Fantastic photo, I love the simplicity here. Nice colours and reflections. A polarizing filter would have really worked well in this situation, and brought out more of the blue hues in the sky while defining the clouds at the same time. May I suggest investing in one if you haven't done so already, they are quite cheap. I've got a 450D and I never take it off. Anyway, the sand looks so untouched in this scene, well worth getting your feet wet for :). A very peaceful place to be by the looks of it. Well photographed.

TFS,
Scott.

Hi Bev
Well done for stopping and smelling the roses as they say. This is a simple but effective composition with the ripples on the left and the shoreline on the right leading to a vanishing point. They say that horizontal lines denote serenity and that is true here with the gentle waves even if they are at a slight angle.

Hello Bev,

Your title is most appropriate!
I love the pov and the capture of the ripples on the water.
The triangle of sand, on the right, is most unexpected but highly effective in the overall composition.

Havre a good day,
Bev :-)
