Very nice. I like the second one a lot. Never seen a boat house before; then again, never been to Scotland.

Soothing pictures, I liked beautiful framing and blue sky reflection in first picture very much.

Bill,

The part of me that enjoys abstract art, was drawn immediately to the reflection in your second photo. I just took a piece of paper and cut out a rectangular section so I could isolate just that part of this photo. Oh, yea! You could just get lost in the color and motion. That was very cool!

Both are great shots but the first was well framed and the reflections add so much to the shot....good shooting.

Wow Bill, those are nice. I love the reflections in the first one the angle in the second one and they are both very colorful. Thanks for sharing them.

I like the way you framed the image with the branches. I also like the the POV of the second one.

Thanks Lindy, I had to go back and look at them again. I love how you see a picture within the picture, I must be a philistine.

Thanks, the trees are all green now and with the sun shining it makes picture taking easier.
