Very wild colors and patterns. A little modern art at ESS. Cool stuff.

Marvelous. I'm kind of wishing the twigs at the top were a little more abstract and less defined. What--the ducks couldn't paddle faster?

I like this a lot Scott. The kaleidoscope effect works very well. It is colorful and fun.

I think I live this one a better than your previous attempt. A little psychedelic kaleidoscope action you have going here.

Wonderful color and I think your quicker shutter speed kept a lot of the crispness needed in the shot.

Nice job

Wow, this is honestly one of the best, most original reflection abstracts that I've ever seen. I love it.

Wild stuff Scott, love the colors and patterns. Can't decide if I like the areas of the branch that are more defined or if that takes away from the abstract feel. Either way, great capture.
