 This mill has been kept in good shape ever since it was first built in 1870. This is one of my favorite places to take pictures.

This looks like a painting, it looks so good. It looks like art. I really think we should ban the 6 people that gave it a 3 or lower. It's obviously done out of spite or to lower everyone else's scores but their own.

The sky looks a little bright - was it just overcast that day? Love the building and trees. The ripples through the reflection are nice as well. Good work!

More times past than nostalgia. Nice architectural shot but think that it could cropping to tighten up on the main subject I feel my attention bouncing around the picture looking for a detail that is not there.

I think this picture is awesome. I like the clarity, the color and the fact that you have been able to show the grain in the wood of the mill.
I'm sorry if you got this twice but I went to add you to my favorite list and then the comment went away.
