On Golden Pond would be a great title for this beautiful shot. I love the pose and the BG golds are amazing. The whites are exposed nicely. I might take a bit off the bottom but like it as is. A wonderful shot,

Nice detail and great golden light...Looks a bit hot in some places (not easy to expose perfectly in this golden light) Water level looks like it could do with a CCW rotation, maybe 1 degree. Very nice

Wow!! Beautiful shot. Love the warm golden light and the pose. Well done.

Thanks guys. Dumay, will buy you a spirit level for christmas:w3 Histogram indicates no white are blown. Thanks Vivaldo, have posted a repost under this with a slight desaturation in the oranges, what do you think?

I like your original post Brendon... Light quality is outstanding and your composition works beautifully.

I very much like the re-post Brendon, the colours still look great and it looks more realistic :w3:S3:
