I'm just going through the photos quickly, and wasn't planning on commenting this time around, but this one and one other really called to me. there were other photos that were beautifully done, wonderful photos, but I just wanted you to know that yours made me want to comment. I like the serenity and the washed out colors. It's lovely.

I like this photo a lot. The asymmetrical balance in the foreground and the symmetrical balance in the background.
