Fall Watercolour

A crop of a shot taken in a local stream. This is a water reflection of leaves both at the bottom of the stream as well as refelected from above. The water was flowing at a nice gentle flow.
Canon 5D MKII 70-200mm.

Beautiful image Bob. Love the color palette and the craquelure patterning. I like the image very much as posted but I also think a 90 degree CW rotation to put the darker part of it at as a supporting base would be interesting. Creates a different mood though, with the rotation, I see flames in the image. Hope you can tell I'm enjoying this one.

This type of fall reflection art is one of my favorites. Beautiful blend of colors and shapes that really is a wonder to view and explore. Thanks for posting it.

Beautiful abstract, Bob. Now, if this were mine, I would carefully do some selection in Viveza2 and do just a touch of darkening to create even more of a circular pattern. But fortunately, we all see just a bit differently.

I like this and would only suggest you lighten the far right, just a smidgeon.

Nice work, Bob,

Carol

Nice abstraction and great color in this...well seen. I agree with the suggestion to slightly lighten the RHS to provide more balance.

Always good to look down every once in a while. Great colors and interesting shapes on the water surface. One could almost imagine a face in the upper center :toast:

Very well seen Bob, it definately looks like stained glass. You could maybe try a slightly bigger crop to remove the darker RHS a tad. The ripples have created a lovely effect.
