Hello Russell. This is a very well captured scene in pristine tranquility. The perspective of the hills is amazing and the reflection of one of the peak is brilliant. Regards. Jusni

Russell, this is an incredible view of this location. I love your early morning light on the peak, and the beautiful reflection in the water in front. A great shot.

Regards,
David

Hi Russell, beautiful place... and you ¨pictured¨ it in a great way. The reflection of the peak is amazing, also the clouds just between the mountains. And everything in soft warm colours, well done! chau chau,

Maria

PS: I dared to make a workshop just to see how it looks in B&W, hope you don´t mind.

Hi Russell,
I'm glad you were treated to some clear weather, and you made good use of it. This is a wonderful and natural view of this location...the colours and lighting subdued, but very natural. I really like the composition with the reflection of the highest peak well positioned in the frame. Very well done.
Cheers Grant

HI Russell

Indeed its very nicely framed shot. Specially I liked the reflection over water. A very well calculated shot. A vine composition with great POV.

Regards,

Lopshang.

What a beautiful place Russell. The atmosphere is so peaceful. I like the clouds hanging over the mountains. The use of the water to capture the reflection of the mountain is very good. The sky is a little washed out though. I tried a workshop to help bring out the colors a bit. Hope you like it.
Regards,
Ryan

Hi Russell. Impressive PoV that cranes the head so to speak towards the heavens to gaze at the enormity of the mountain chain and that makes us look down at the still water and the beautiful reflection. One of the best i have seen of this place. Regards. Klaudio.

Hello Russell.
Wonderful scene, beautifully composed. The tranquility of this dawn view is superbly captured. I think Ryan's WS adds a little to the shot, and perhaps I would also try to bring out a little more detail in the shaded areas by lightening them selectively. But wonderful shot all the same.
Regards,
Andrew

This is a wonderful shot of Milford Sound!!
I was there but didn't get to see this beautiful view.
You captured the scene superbly! I especially like the reflection of the Mitre Peak.
I really envy your luck of being there on one of those rare sunny days!!!
I think a polarizing filter might have improved the contrast between the sky and the hazy hills.
