The lake itself has finally became the focal point!  What took so long was my lack of confidence in painting a scene where water would take up 2/3 of the canvas.  But divide and (kind of) conquer it is.  I actually did a sketch for this painting on site and used both it and the photo to work from. The conical trees seem here to stay.  I'm getting attached to them.
