I nominate "Blue Mounds"

I have no idea as to the location of "Blue Mounds," but assume it is in a serene part of the heartland....an absolute perfect choice for the subject at hand, serenity. Every element of this photo oozes serenity....no colors to excite the senses, no animals, no people, no signage, no machinery...only serenity. Even the water is still, i.e. serene. The grasses in the foreground stand serenely, unbuffered by breeze or wind. The mist coming off the water just hangs there....serenely, and not in any hurry to lift to the clouds. The element of perspective is captured exceptionally well in the trees and their reflections which are in near-perfect focus. The progression of diminution in the size of the trees going from right to left suggests an infinite continuation of the serene. There are no block stark tonal juxtapositions in this composition...nothing to jar the viewer from a state of serenity. Rather, the author has nicely captured a serene distribution of tone within the foundation of a fairly broad dynamic range. Well done, IMO.

Very comforting.

Like the reflections, the fog, the moment.
