Thank you everyone for the kind words! 99% credits goes to the beautiful city of Brugges, it was my fifth visit in the last one year and the place still enchants me.
Amazing photo! Perfect composition and what an environment. You’ve always got to love, as a photographer, when mother nature brings her best game to the table and this sunset really sets this shot apart from other environmentals that would be taken in the same place at a different time. Nice work! Thanks for sharing a view that I’d otherwise never see!
Thanks PolarityPhoto for your insight into mother natures wonders. The key to capturing such moments is patience because you never know when nature is going to surprise.. Really appreciate your comments.
Stunning photograph, well composed, very clear but above all, with magical light! Well done with HDR :) Not to forget, thanks for your comment on my Morning snow at Hochjoch, Austria. To get closer and still retain the reflections and the mountain ridge as a background would be a bit tricky: taking into account that the height difference between the lake and the ridge behind it is about 300m, I was still quite high above the lake, and the path didn’t lead in the direction to the lake. In fact, it continued back and to the left from where I stood making this photograph; the path you see on the shore of the lake leads to nowhere, only along a part of the shore… When I descended a bit, I found that I can’t get nice reflection anymore.
Thanks for taking your time to comment. I glad that you tried to get a closer shot of the lake. Some times it is what it is. I tried to to take a postcard shot of the Ludwig’s castle down in Fussen, however after trekking about 5km at 30 degree elevation, I realized that the postcard picture was possibly taken from a chopper. I had to give up.

One of the most beautiful city in Belgium. Great shot!
Squealia, I shot 3 raw pictures at 0, +2, -2 EV and so it is a real hdr. I used hdr to balance the lighting in the picture. I didn’t push the shadow details, but recovered a lot of highlights. Thanks for the comments and the bubble mail. Will work on a calendar as soon as I fix my computer.
What a truly stunning reflective scene this is. I like the colours in the sky and water, then there’s the depth of field too. Marvellous! Regards, Don.
