    What a lovely pastoral image, makes me think of a painting, JP. Lots to like here! I like that soft almost impressionistic reflection; the horses and colts in a line; and the country road and fencing in the bg. It would also make a nice pano with the top third removed. I can sure imagine this hanging on someone's wall.

    Love it JP !!! Would make two images out of this one !!

    One similar to the presented but cropping some of the water at the bottom... half to the reflection but leaving the top as is !! Shoes the environment and its very appealing

    The other would go for a pano of the horses as suggested Will also be effective and a fine image !!! Big Congrats !!!

    Very nice, JP! One suggestion for another day...See the back fence that is running straight down from the center of your image? If you had moved a bit to the right that corner of the fence would have moved down and to the left of center (more in keeping with the Rule of Thirds) and closer to the last horses. It would have given a really strong visual to draw your eye to the back of the image. As it is, it tends to cut the image right down the middle and makes my eye just stop right at the center line.

    Your exposure and DOF are beautiful and it's a very nice image overall!
