Wow! my first blue. This was a lucky shot. I went to the lake to take a sunrise shot, made a wrong turn, ended up at a different park than I was intending to go to, and was amazed at how thick the mist coming off the water was. I took about 10-12 shots then left to find my originzl target location. When I got home and saw how the mist blended into the horizon, I knew I had a good shot. On top of that I love the expression "blue mist round my soul" I certainly feel that way sometimes. I wish I had thought of using blue toning as several comments suggested, I have just always use copper and didn't give it enough thought. In any event, thank you all so much for the kind comments and high scores. I doubted I would ever get a blue and now I can rest easier. Thank you!!!

Congratulations Bob! Great photo and not all luck as you suggest..lot of vision, great composition, and wonderful tones. Hope this is the first of many more.
Just gorgeous. I love the curving line, and that there is both a reflection, and an area that disappears into the unknown. A shame about the garbage cans.
I love this picture, however, I think you should have changed the hue, to make this a bit blueish, I think it would have been better. But that's just my opinion. So far, the best in this challenge.
