Reflections in Green and Blue

Does the woodpecker pause to notice the beauty of his surroundings? I might have focused my lens on this Downy, but it is the background colours that speak to me now (featured image).

I caught the river in a particularly still moment (above) until something disturbed the calm allowing me to create the dreamy image below.

For Lens-artists challenge: cool colours of blue and green.
