Good idea, but very little imagination.

Would make a great background if there was some subject on it :)

I think it needs a little more exposure of +2

Nice texture, captured well. I wouldn't mind seeing just perhaps a tiny bit more detail in the darkest areas, but overall I like this quite a bit.

It's a subtle shot, and a very well done one at that. We don't get enough good subtle shots around here (and they don't usually score very well). Good work.

cool- would probably do well in this new 'scents/aromas' challenge.

Keep trying, NYU boy. I think this photo would be better if you'd left out all the reflections except for the tree. Get rid of the brick on the bottom too, there's too much going on. Keep your photos true to their meaning. You want to show a reflection, so focus on the reflection.

Splendid motif capture - I wonder if it could be composed a little bit better

Sorry about yesterday's comment, bad day. I think this image would work in a lighting or shadow challenge but it's not a still life.

Ahh....i know the problems of this shot all too well: where do I meter to get the best overall brightness with out blowout and if there will enough of it be in focus....it's really tough to do....Very much like how the tree shadow almost blends into the reflected trees, but the reflected trees are too out of focus and the overall image does not quite work....really needed to use a tripod....nice attempt at the challenge this image affords.
