I'm just commenting on all my 10s before the challenge ends. I love this photo! Technically, it's not amazing, but it's such an incredible candid shot, and I love the way it's composed. 10 (as I said) - lisae

Interesting reflection but overall composition lacking

great reflection

I think I would like to see it cropped off with just the table but that is my personal observation.

Your picture is good. I do not understand the title.

Would have been great that the cut-off point of the reflection be the same as the cut-off point on the top edge of the picture. Does this make sense?

very original, well done

I like the way that the head is cropped off the actual image and seen only as a reflection. The background is cluttered and I'd prefer it without someone else in shot.
Creative/ interesting idea.

I think I would have been happier with just the reflection, leaving out what you can see above the table. Does he have dreads??? Don't know why, but I don't get those. lhall-7

Interesting idea, but I don't think it works too well composition wise. Yes, it's a reflection; but I don't think there's enough of it. The water, which I assume is the prime subject, is – in my opinion – lost to all the distractions around the table that draw the eye away from the central subject. The lighting is a little dull and he focus is slightly soft. I think that cropping the image to only show the blue of the table, the bottom half of the picture, would have worked much better. Sorry to be so negative… (2)

I like the idea of showing the head only in the reflection. Very original, it's not the typical water reflection.

A bit blurry, but a cool and unusual reflection.

He heeeeeeee! I like it, creative shooting. Score 7 Justine
