Ohmy! This is one of the most stunning landscapes I've ever seen. Whew. . I'm sure glad I didn't enter my boring river/stream. With competition like this, it would have ended up in the gutter for sure :)

Congratulations. I love seeing you in the blue ribbon spot :)

Stunning sky and beautifully detailed scene. The water is actually a little too smooth for my taste, but everything else is so very right this is still one of my favorites in this challenge. Marvelous image to just sit and contemplate for awhile.

  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/14/2008 01:38:44 PM
Go Iceland! This feels a lot like Larus' recent Moonlight Sonata from the post production and water quality. I'm only 16% of the way through all the images from this challenge but this is a ribbon candidate in my book - the placement of the river at thirds, the bluish misty tones of the water, the monotonality (is that even a word?!) of the snow and the mountainside and then the glorious clear starry sky. If a landscape shot can be minimalist I think this is it - awesome.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The stars are a little too much for my taste, but a thoroughly impressive photo nonetheless.
