 Taken at Tibble Fork reservoir. I'm still trying to learn my new D50. I didn't too very well in the Pride challenge so I hope this one dose better.

I still love my entry in the Pride challenge btw.

I was just walking around with my wife and the 2 yr old and saw this guy fishing, noticed the reflection of the mountains in the water and thought that it might work for this challenge.

I hope you all like it. It was so peaceful when I shot it I wanted to convey that feeling in this shot.

this is a case where the reflection really does stand out above the "actual" in the shot...nicely done! great light capture in the water...

Not sure about the composition here, although you are trying to fit in as much reflection as possible, for me the foreground is a bit boring, apart from the nice warm colour there is little in the way of interest. Better luck next time I guess.

The reflection draws less attention for me then the setting around it. More focus on the reflection would make this an excellent photograph for me.

Some light blast in the upper right. I think you could have composed this better.

Now if you had the reflection of the entire fisherman it would have been spectacular.
