Photographer's Note
I took this picture on the Holmes Lake, the major park of Lincoln. This is an man-made lake, that was recently renewed. A very nice place to walk at the end of the day. I hope you like.
PS: I have only done some cropping and sharpened a little.

Hi Ricardo
I somehow like this photo better than your previous photo ... as the birds in the lake and the sun shining on the lake makes this photo very dramatic
thanks for sharing ... sarju

This whole picture really glows; the light on the water is superb. The water birds add that extra touch. Well done

:-) Before this one there was out of Africa, now there will be Out of Nebraska :-)
I like it how its been done in three lines and with such elements as the ducks and relection coming well to us.
The sky colors are beautiful.
I like it

Hi Ricardo,
Very nice sunset water. I like the ducks swimming in the lake. Great lightness and contrast of colours. Well done.

Hi Ricardo,
A classic three part scene with moody hues and tones. I like how you have partially hidden the bright sun so that it does not overwhelm the scene. The ducks are clearly seen and enhance the foreground. The silhouetted trees also enhance, but appear ever so slightly out of focus. I like your large format for this shot, as the scene has high impact and drama. Well done.

Você está se saindo muito bem com suas composições!!!
Esta foto em particular é muito interessante... ela tem dois "estágios" o pôr-do-sol acima e o lago com o reflexo abaixo.
Muito bom!

Hi Ricardo. I like the way you cut the sun here. I'm impressed that there is no lens flare! And the ducks are cute. Well done.

Another great sunset, Ricardo, and an interesting composition with the sun hanging from the top of the frame - I don't think I've seen one posted in quite this way before. Great reflection on the water and the silhouettes of the swans are perfect.

Hi Ricardo.
Great landscape and great sunshine. The light and the colour are the main elements of the picture, and are really good.
Well done.
