This Dam is on the N1, South Africa, about 80km before Hanover( i think)...

Anyway....on the farm of a very friendly farmer, he saw me tooking photos from the fence and said I'm welcome to climb over and go to the edge of the water...i got about 20 shots and then a breeze rippled the surface of the water:(...I would have like to get more angles and an IR shot of the willow....

amazing sky, colours, and composition.
every element comes together perfectly.
the ripple adds interest to an otherwise predictable reflection.
not that i have anything against reflections.
that i love your entire gallery is an understatement.

my kind of scene. would have shot this in infrared or with an 10-stop ND.

while post-processing is subjective, don't you think the sky is too blue and dark?

Impressive stuff. Do you always use a tripod for your work?
