Anonymous said...: they both look awesome, Jacob - I love love love b&w photos - but is that birds on those boats? if so, they're really big; January 20, 2010 at 9:57 PM
Clueless in Boston said...: It looks good in both versions, but the b+w seems a little more artistic and kind of timeless.; January 20, 2010 at 10:36 PM
joo said...: Both are beautiful but I prefer black and white option. Those cormorants (they are cormorants, aren't they?) are fabulous:)
Fog is so picturesque!; January 21, 2010 at 4:35 AM
Cezar and Léia said...: The second one for sure! :)
I think it was a silent morning as well...

Small City Scenes said...: Picture postcard perfect---the one with a touch of color. Look at all the birds. The must be deciding who's going to row.
Super super shot.
B&W ok too. MB; January 21, 2010 at 7:13 AM
VP said...: Water and sky are seamless in the fog. I see the patches of color as essential to keep alive this wonderful image.; January 21, 2010 at 7:24 AM
Hilda said...: I like the first because of the spots of color from the boats. Which, I notice, those funny birds really love.

I love fog, maybe because we rarely get them. Keep them coming, Jacob. Your images are beautiful!; January 21, 2010 at 7:42 AM
Lowell said...: @ Tricia - The birds are anhingas...pretty good size. I'll probably post a close-up or two of them tomorrow...

Have a great day!; January 21, 2010 at 7:49 AM
Frank said...: These are the best and most unusual scenes you've ever captured of The Villages. I would never guess this is a little lake in the middle of Florida.; January 21, 2010 at 9:28 AM
Lowell said...: Thank you all...Frank, you just made my day!; January 21, 2010 at 11:22 AM

Rob Siemann said...: The birds must be commuting to work, or something... Beautiful pictures, both of them.; January 21, 2010 at 2:41 PM
cieldequimper said...: En couleur, please! This looks so much like what I'm used to in Brittany (and in WA!); January 21, 2010 at 2:56 PM
Unknown said...: Definitely colour for me! :-) So very beautiful! And the birds in a row are the cherry on top of the cake!; January 21, 2010 at 5:24 PM
Rose said...: Oh my goodness, one of the best photos ever. I want to see the close-ups...so I will be waiting!; January 21, 2010 at 6:17 PM
