I am just not too sure about the framing on this image. Part of me likes the green pickleweed in the foreground to show depth, and the other part of me wants to see more on the horizon. Sure is a beautiful show of color and texture.

There are a lot of water pics in this challenge, and I gotta say, water makes me thing wet, not smooth. But, this is a lovely photo, nevertheless. 7

Great colours, maybe a tad over sharpened. You've really captured some great silky smooth water. I would crop out the coastline up the top and show more of the green foliage down the bottom. Or maybe show more of the coastline up the top. Great job!

Although this looks a little oversaturated, the water is beautifully smooth. 8.

The flowers are beautiful, but a little disturbing. Some crop (top and bottom) would make this really nice for this challenge.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good job! I think it would have been better if you would have cropped out the flowers in the left hand corner.

i love the look of the water and the angle this was shot from. great job.

Beautiful, looks like a painting.

Serene and surreal. Lovely.

Such a beautiful shot. Wonderful colors and crop. I don't think it meets the challenge theme all that will though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice colors. also the inclusion of the foreground grass adds to the photo.

thats really neat looking

Great color, very clear, Love it.

Beautiful. I think maybe the composition could have been better. Given more of either the top or the bottom and cut one out completely.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/16/2007 06:29:15 PM
Gorgeous Colors
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/16/2007 06:41:59 AM
Nice composition. Your colours look way oversaturated and that doesn't help the photo
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/16/2007 06:06:50 AM
oh wow...the colours are amazing in this...I would have liked a bit more foreground and background, but otherwise nice 8
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/16/2007 03:14:36 AM
hmmmm i wish this was cropped a big higher so i could see more of the background rocks, it's a nice shot

Great colors. Dreamy mood. I like the flowery foreground, but would like to see more of the far shore. Maybe there were distracting buildings there?
