Sturtevant Pond

Who doesn't like/love fall reflections? No one I know! This was taken at a quiet pond that was just gorgeous! I did crop out uninteresting sky and sky reflection, and the usual brightening, contrast and sharpening.

Christine, Fantastic colour, love the still reflection. Is it just me or are you slanting down on the right?

Beautiful colors Christine and a wonderful reflection. I wish we got those great reds out my way. Well done.

The splashes of red among the foliage and reflections make for some gorgeous accents.

Lovely scene, Christine. Those reds are impressive and contrast nicely with the greens and golds. Nicely composed as well.

Very nice fall color Christine. I have two small suggestions. One would be to bring down the brightest highlights just a bit, especially in the shoreline (although I am viewing on a laptop that might be a bit bright). I would also suggest moving your logo. I know it's nitpicking, but it is distracting where it has been placed.

Gorgeous color for sure! I like the horizontal layering in the image with the banding of color and the slim silver shoreline, really nicely composed Christine.

Some eye-popping colors and fine reflection. I agree with Gary that it might need a CCW rotation and I might clone out the two white spots lower left.

great colors and the near 50/50 comp doesn't hurt it at all
