Judges' comments:
Image has good depth; vignette is strong but keeps eye in the frame; the rocks provide balance; nice reflection
Maker's notes:

This image was shot in John Denver Park in Aspen Colorado.  It was shot hand held with my Canon 7D Mark ii and a 18-135mm Canon zoom lens set to 24mm. Camera was set in aperture priority at f/13 with ISO 800 resulting in exposure of 1/500 second as set.  This image is a composite of a 5 shot HDR with two shots 2/3 f/stops and 4/3 f/stops above and below the nominal.  HDR merge done in Lightroom.
