What a classic photo, and you did it so well.

Beautiful! My only suggestion would be to try burning out the reflection just a tiny bit, as it reflected so well that it actually looks like something's there and it's a bit distracting Stunning pic though!

Maybe a rock thrown into the water would have proved to remove the distraction just enough.

Great pic!

I see that your B&W appears to sharper than the color version. May I know how you did your conversion to B&W? Thx.

I used ACDSee Pro 2.
Just converted to greyscale, then played a little bit with "Light EQ".

thanks all for the suggestions

I like the sharpness in your photo.. was it because of post processing? I agree with Kathryn.. reflection is too good
