I am beginning to generate a keener interest in the Landscape side of things (long way to go) and my first set of filters are on their way... but I digress.
I like this photo. I find the tree a rather dominant feature but I suspect that was an intention of the composition. I take my hat off to you using film and getting having to consider the exposures more thoroughly which makes this all the better.
It's just a shame that the system wont let us see the full version because a sub 360k version just doesn't do it justice.

Yes, the tree was deliberate. I enjoy near-far relationships in my images and felt this tree worked very well. I have been using the Linhoff 617SIII for 10 years now and it is a great camera albeit film based. I have a high resolution oil mounted drum scan made of selected transparencies and the files for mural size enlargements are often over 400 MB. If you are using a digital camera in RAW mode you won't have any need for color correction filters, but if you use film they are great for optimum color balance.

Good idea of POV. I like all the textures. Beautiful capture, with a kind of mystery and a subtle light. Perfect atmosphere.

Beautiful photo. I like the panorama view. Even if I would have liked to see it in a larger formate. Lovely soft feeling in the water, and the old three stem adds to the photo as well. Looks like a lovely place to bring camera and a tripod :) Thank you for sharing, regards Carina

This is a beautiful shot! I love how the placement of the decaying tree, and the smoothness of the water here. The flower at the stump's base adds interest. [pat]

Beautiful landscape, but it would be better to show a bit more space in up part of photo, which could express well the mood of the calm forest.

Thank you all for commenting. It is always good to hear different perspectives on images. What you see in this image is full frame with the 6 x 17 cm transparency. The space above what is depicted in this framing has bright blue morning sky which I thought would have been distracting, thus I used the pano camera instead of a 4 x 5. At the time I was attending a wonderful workshop with John Sexton and Charlie Cramer and shot this image with and without the #85B color correction filter. The differences were dramatic.
