Spectaculary beautiful, Danny. The still, sharp little island of growth in that sea of fall colors is masterful. You have created beauty. :jump:

Nice shot. I think fall water reflections are some of my favorite photographs. Not really much to say I really like this one.

This has a nice simplicity to it, I like it. Would have preferred a little more room for the reflection at the bottom but that's minor. The colorful reflections are a nice touch.

Nice image. I like how you have used the log in the water to pull the eye into the frame.

I am opposite to Zack on the cropping, if you crop 20 to 25% off the bottom the balance between the yellows and the greens in the reflection will harmonize better. With it as is, the large amount of green becomes a bit too heavy. With the crop it will lighten up the whole image and balance.

Good work. :smile:

Sweet. Besides the comp and light, I really like the texture/reflections in the water.

Beautiful, minimalist interpretation of fall. The shrubs and their reflection are the perfect foil to all the oof reflections and the golden color up top mimic sunlight. Great vision.

Really like the simplicity and the blurred, reflected autumn colors. Well seen.

Love the reflection with the horizontal and vertical lines. Makes the little island really pop. Very well done.

Beautiful color Danny. The growth framed following the rule of thirds works perfectly. Was it an option too move to the right? Probably not, but having the bush in between the yellow reflections would be cool. This would be worth visiting again with a little fog too.
