It's a lovely photo Amy except - er hmm maybe its the red wine effect on both of us - but I'd swear your horizon is slanting to the right! Now we both know that water finds its own level! Did you ever see a sea running downhill??? Oh Amy! It's lovely actually! I love that simplicity of composition anyway with the lovely reflection :-o

@Anne: I think it's just the line of the lake, Anne. I was very careful in setting this shot up.... mind you, there have been times when I've been so certain my horizon was spot on when it was tilted. Let's see if anyone else says something... I'm also thinking that was one hell of a good red wine!! LOL

PS. Amy: I went from here to Billy's photoblog - but he hasn't put another one up yet! I was a bit intrigued by your comment about a "Welshman skipping across the pond". Not being familiar with the lovely site that he murdered as usual (but in inimmical Billy style - I love them) I am curious? Or have I just had too much red wine tonight! (OMG its almost 3:30 in the morning) Did you know that place?

@Anne: No, I don't know the castle other than billy has posted other images of it. I was just teasing him in using the shamrocks on his image (which are as we know sooo Irish) and him being the proud Welshman he is. That was all. How much wine did you drink LOL.. save some for me!!

Wow ! This is just beautiful Amy. Very well done !
And I am kind of agree with Anne, even if it is the line of the leak, I think it would look better if you rotate it a bit.

This photo makes me want to just stare and peacefully fall asleep while staring at it.

Ah so !!fiendish billydetective has spotted a small bit of mischief making amongst cutesie's comments yeaaah ??--the wine or the pleasure a little teasing of the Welshboyo brings ??--which is it hey ??
So !! how is billy going to counteract this mischievous behaviour ??
Dunno yet !! but I'll have to think of something......billyplanningrevenge

Marvellous! Why is it that Nature is always so beautiful when the image is kept minimal and simple?
