    looks like every wetland in NJ in winter too

    i'm not much on words when it comes to critiquing so...

    while i love this scene, it seems to be busy to me. maybe a different angle or less DOF?

    any way to shoot it, nature rules in my book!

    Thanks.
    I agree completely with the DOF point. Should have softened the trees in the background. I'll go back and reshoot it!!

    I agree with the DOF as well, but I do love the tones and texture of this shot!
