That floor of lilies is stunning. It looks like glass over marble. 9.

nice perspective and tonal range (whatever tht is :-))
I think this would look a lot nicer in a bigger format.
I think the 640 is not doing it justice.

I really love the composition, with the paper barks surrounding the lilly pond. The reflection of some of the trees inbetween the lillies, is a nice contrast. A very good B/W....."WOW", "WOW","WOW".....

Wonderful, love the angle, leaves just enough to be able to appreciate both the 'floor' and the 'uprising' scenery. Well done!

The picture seems tilted?

Depth. Contrast. Subjects. Some clouds would be nice. Seems appropriate for Adams.

When Adams's didn't have dark, strong, angry clouds, he had gradiated skies from dark to light. It is this type of sky that I see in this composition. Small yet still effective. The tonal qualities of this image is striking and the use of a wide angle completes this spot on tribute to one of our greatest photographers. Great job!

this is fine for your grayscale freek, but composition wise ansel was a purest and tried to keep the frame as simple and beautiful as possible, i think that in his style that is just as important as the grayscale (b/c now ppl. can fake the grayscale so efficently)....i'm sorry to say but i feel u missed the mark with way 2 busy a composition.
