Bonsoir, ch鑽e Karen,
Une vie de r黐e pour cet endroit paradisiaque. J'aime beaucoup l'effet des ombres projet馥s sur le sable.
Les feuillages en avant-plan donnent un effet de relief du meilleur go皦.
Une bien belle image pour un bien bel endroit.
Amiti駸.

Hello Karen,
beautiful summer mood from this lovely lake. You have captured it in warm light and natural colours. I like the play of light and shadows on the beach and the branches on top of the image. They help to create good depth to your picture. Well done.
Best wishes,
Helmut

Hi Karen,
Great point of view on that summer scene. Good idea to include the branches at the top. Vivid colours and good contrasts. People seem to enjoy the place. Cheers!
Best regards
Denis!

Hi Karen,
nice to have you here around again!
Wonderful image with a great atmosphere of freshness, because the colors of the water and the sky are very cold. Very well composed impression of this beautiful lakeside resort. Most of all I like the great light. TFS!
Warm regards
Harriet

It looks like a Mediterranean Beach, so I was surprised to read it is a lake. I particularly like the framing with the leaves and the dappled shadows on the beach.

Hello Karen,
A fine view of this nice and not too crowded beach. It looks very relaxing. What I especially like about the photo and the beach is the shade from the trees, a palce to go if the sun gets too hot.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi Karen,
Much different scenery than you are used to on the Great Plains of Alberta.
Beautiful coastal scene shot in warm light that brings tranquil shadows on the beach and vivid colors to sea and sky.
Regards, Tom

Pretty place Karen, and the shot is nicely done as well, fine shadows and nothing overexposed and the people on the beach give a friendly feel. Great stuff.

A very good division of the frame with color and texture, karen and the whole thing has a lovely mood, because of the light that you have captured, I think.(Canada seems to enjoy such wonderful light, soft, bright but not harsh.) Regards kevin
