 Well, I'm hoping this will be my first top 20. This gentleman fishing was very patient as I took picture after picture while it got darker and darker. This is one of my favorite spots to take sunset shots. I think you can see why.

Lots of fishing going on in here, lol. I like this very much even though I can't quite figure out the reflection of the tower. It's worth a 7.

The mechanical contraption seemingly hanging in space and seemingly not a reflection makes the photo more interesting. I like the enigmatic nature. 8

Interesting reflection in the lake. Almost looked like a one sided reflection, until I realized the reflected object was out in the water, and not visible aong the trees.
