 Photographed at a nearby lake a few miles from my home. A beautiful day and a very fiery sunset made this shot hard to resist.
I'm hoping to finally make it into the high 5's or low 6's with this entry. At the very least I would love another PB.

Update: I'm very happy with this! It did exactly what I was hoping it would by hitting at least the high 5's and making my new PB. Yeah!

A nice and tranquil shot, but it lacks some oomph.

i don't know if it is the editing or what, but the weeds in the foreground look weird to me

I like the balance of the foreground vs BG. Nice clarity.

Nice golden light and composition. Not a "wow" shot but the peacefulness is quietly appealing.
