I have always really loved tranquil mountain scenery, and when I get out of Georgia Tech most assuredly want to be near something similar to what has been captured in this image. It is really need to me how everything in this photo emphasizes stillness. The water reflects as a mirror. The snow- that which coats the trees and the hillside- appears undisturbed, as if not a soul has dared to violate this seemingly perfect veil of ice. With the trees holding as much snow as they have, this picture must have been taken at a time in which there was little or now wind, which would most definitely ruin the peacefulness of this scene.
The small chair in the bottom half of the image gives causes this piece to seem as if it is more welcoming than it would regularly be if it were completely undisturbed by human hands. The fact that someone went out of their way to carve a small chair and a fence shows that this place is tame to some degree, but not so much that it's true beauty has been tainted.
