Just A Clean Mirror Lake!
The orderly calm Lake Matheson at the Fox Glacier in New Zealand was just a perfect Mirror Lake, indeed!
It was mesmerizing in awe to witness the beauty of the nature while the fog was gradually disappearing revealing the beautiful Aeoraki/Mt Cook and Mt Tasman up and down!

What a beautiful location Kee!
I like the light and composition, but it feels a little too tight...
I would like to have some breathing room above the mountains.

I agree. This is a really beautiful image! It would be even stronger with a bit more room at the top of the image.

Thanks Andrey for your comment and feedback.
'Feels a little too tight' is the same feeling I have as well.
Perhaps 50-60 mm focal length would have been better.
I will look for some more shots from this location. I am sure I do.

That's a pretty nice image, Kee, though I think it could have included more of the scene on the left side.
Suggestion: You can stop cluttering up all your threads with your repeated single replies and group them using multi-quote to thank 5 or ten people in ONE reply. Everyone here will appreciate that. That's why Fred put that feature in there.

Last image.. you suggested to crop the left side.. and this time you suggest to include the scene on the left side.
Have you been here in person?
As for the replies.. I do sometimes reply group them and sometimes singly, depending on the situations.
Can you leave that to my discretion? Thank you!

Beautiful, simply beautiful.
Yes, I also wish to be there again soon!
Very nice place to be. Maybe next time if I have a chance I hope I get more vibrant scene with calm water!
That area, Fox Glacier area seems to have not much wind, not like Iceland!!

Little more room at the top -- maybe make the space between mountain and border the same on top and bottom.
Also... I'd lower the shadows. Think the trees show too much detail and are distracting. In general I'd push back towards a more natural shadow profile.
