Oh this is your best in the series by far. I'm so glad you decided to go high tone with this subject. I would see what it would look like if the reeds were lightened up a bit with a curve adjustment. Particularly those in the bottom right area. But that's just nitpicking. This is an excellent image IMO.

Stunning colors, and I like how you placed the reeds in the composition.

That's stunning. The colors of course are amazing and the arrangement of reeds and reflections is really effective.

What a beauty! This entire series has been such a pleasure to view, and this is the topper so far. Keep knocking them out of the park!

That's gorgeous, lovely choice of shutter speed to glaze over the slight movement of the water to achieve those beautiful multi-coloured reflections, obviously it was pretty still conditions as all your reeds seem to be crisp, really like the lily pads on the water too all in all its a bit like a modern day Monet.

This is wonderful Michael. The best of the series imho. Such soft colors intertwined with the reed design. Very pleasing to view.

This is drop dead gorgeous, Mike. I too think this is your best of the Tarn series so far. Everything works beautifully in this scene from the placement of the reeds to the lovely colorful reflections. You should make a print of this beauty.

The colors are amazing. I like the texture of the blades of grass against the smooth glass like reflective surface of the water.

Wait, there are two Lowes? And both of you took pictures of that same tarn? That was a bit confusing. I thought I was seeing a progression of images by the same photographer.

Michael, you developed a wonderful style and your image works almost as an abstract to my eye. What I appreciate most of all is the transition of colors in the reflection. Great artistic work in my opinion.
