No match
view across Lake Hawea, New Zealand, just before sunset. I had hoped for some nice reflections here but the wind was just too strong.

Chris, let me just say I know you can't wait until Summer! But I'm one of your biggest fans and appreciate your consistency on IL. I kept Autumn Lake as my desktop well into Winter. Great stuff.

@Chris Gin where are you going in may?
-
@trout, glad you like the website and photos. I will probably only submit of a few more of my current photos to IFL, but I have a photography trip planned in May so hopefully I'll have some new ones then. Thanks again for the comments guys.

bah
the website is just a flash template that you can get cheap. nice pic, at least better than than 2 of the other 3 ones before. still think there are tons of better ones in the loupe

Wow. Where ya been, Gin? This is just great. It made me check out your Loupe submissions, which led me to your website. The site is tremendous. Whoever put that together, knows their stuff more than most. Just brilliant. But, while the site left me in a state of design nirvana, all of your images left me with an unanswered yearning. You have literally several dozen images on your page that I want as wallpapers, and it'll be years before they all make it through here—with IFL being fair and all. I don't suppose you crop every photo into a 1280x800 resolution before stock them away do you? :-) I'll say it again (at least I think I've said it before), you need your own wallpaper site. You've got the chops and material to pull it off. You can be the Godiva chocolate icing to IFL's flour-less double-fudge cake.

I usually wince at hyperbole on this site, but this photo really has something special going for it. Every time I close my windows, I see this thing and think "woah"! Can't put my finger on it.

I actually like the lack of reflection, and the movement of the water.

Even if there are no reflections this photo is stunning in colors and clearness!
