The reflection is awesome! Like a treasure found in a treasure chest. Love the colors as well, but I always do with your images!

@Tracey: Thanks for your visit and comment. Funny thing is, I was just walking by and -- pow! -- it struck me just like found treasure as you say. I was in a hurry to get somewhere but decided I had better take this anyway. Isn't if interesting how photos are like that.

I like the way the reflection reveals objects outside of the picture frame, fantastic.

as the photo was being downloaded slowly , I was awaitening to see what was there in the photo attracting you .
seeing the reflection was a beautiful moment for me too , perhaps mainly because of that awaitening .

I like the simple sweep of the water channel and the reflection of the building in the remaining water. Well seen and captured.

I like the tones and mood of the photo. Is that ice on top of the water?

Even the rain gutters are works of art. A beautiful image.

A true talent to see what's in front of you. Great work on this extremely cunning and harmonious image.

It looks magical. The composition has so much meaning, too, with the ditch winding beyond the frame, dividing it.

I like the curve and the reflections. For the low left angle you could start the picture where the water line reach the left border without loosing any important information.

My husband is watching your latest shots together with me now as he is contemplating the possibility of acquiring a D300. His D70s is getting rather old.
That reflection works like memories of times past....

@Japanalia: I don't work for Nikon, but I do recommend the d300 very highly! I've enjoyed it immensely.
