This is a picture that I took while on exchange, studying in China. I loved the reflections on this lake, and I took about forty pictures of it alrogether. This one was the best though.

Exquisite. It has a wonderful mood about it. Quiet, reflective and a little depressed. Great shot.

compositionally a beatiful photo

the almost monochrome nature is injected into so subtly by the tinyest of splashes of vivid yellow (on the cart) and especially the red colour (round the doors)

the eye is lead so eaisly into that corner near the small arch

the age of the buildings and their decrepitude gives a feel of age old stillness complementing the almost morror smooth water

topographically the layered depth of the townscap , which might have otherwise looked a bit like trompe l'oeils ("trick the eye" 3d effect with flat pictures) is so much improved by the hillside in the background

a superbly crafted image

instant fave

Wow, I can't give a compliment like the one .jzaw just gave, but I do have to say that it is a very nicely done picture. Thank you for sharing.
