Lake Simcoe just before sunsetA lake is the landscape's most beautiful and expressive feature. It is earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature.
~Henry David Thoreau

I like the way you have the sun peeking through the tree's branches. Very nice shot.
This is such a peaceful shot. I love sitting by a lake and daydreaming...I think lakes can be an eye into your own mind.
I bet the Lake Simcoe water's still pretty cold, we haven't really had much summery weather yet, have we?
What a tranquil shot. I like lakes and it is neat to find them scattered here and there. We have lots of small lakes out this way. Nice shot.
i always forget about 'watery wednesday' but i have a water shot for today. MB
I like the sun's reflection on the water as well as the sun peeking between the leaves. A gorgeous picture.
Beautiful photo, EG. The reflection in the water is fabulous.
Hugs,

What a perfectly beautiful shot through the trees, over the lake with that spot of sun on the water!
I answered your question on the last post. Come see my rainy roses today!
This is a fabulous photo, just love that scenery and the reflection of the sun on the water, a beautiful sight to behold.
Aaaah. My favorite place in the world to be is lakeside at sunrise and sunset. I may have to sit and stare at this awhile. Perfection.
Magnificent place and perfect shot!
I liked a lot that quote by Henry Thoreau!
Thanks for sharing

Oh, take me there! Lovely scene. I have a watery scene for today, but not nearly as pretty (not yet written, still in the head). Maybe I'll concentrate on history since I don't see the beauty.
Is it warm enough for an evening picknick?
I really like this wet sunkissyou shared with us!
That's a beautiful shot and I love that quote. :-) And to answer your question, that is a camelia in the water.
Nice place for meditation!
Oh that's a beautiful quote, nearly as beautiful as the lake.
What a beautiful place, and very good composition of the shot.
Sunset is never wrong :-)
Nice shot with the water and branches!
Gorgeous photo! I love this view. Love the reflection of the sunset on the water.
Simply gorgeous shot! Love the small waves - the sun - the tree, a place to sit and let your mind wonder....
Great composition!
Just heavenly. I have said it before I;ll say it again. You are a born photographer.
This is fantastic, definately one of your best.
Cheers

I guess you and I had the same idea, through the trees. Yours is cool !

The reflection, the peek through the branches, the water ripples - all add up to stunning!

Looks like a great place to watch a sunset. lovely post!
All of the photos so far this week are so calming.. I really needed them to be.. Thanks.
What a beautiful and thought-provoking quote, also. In ancient Chinese symbolism of the I Ching, the Lake is the symbol of Pleasure. And interestingly, Water is the symbol for Danger! But the lakeside is my favorite place, it's true.
What a beautifully composed shot.
A beautiful frame, and it made for a very nice foreground too.
