Nice diagonal composition. I love how the sky reflecting in the water adds a bit of blue. Interesting colors. Isn't is neat to find such beauty in the mud. :smile:
Nicely done.

Thanks everyone! I'm trying to hit the leaves hard to build up my portfolio for next year's art fairs. I appreciate all the positive comments and feedback! :toast:

Outstanding. The colors are amazing, very rich textures as well. The way you tamed the highlights/reflections on the water is very well done - I usually get bright whites, so maybe it was the reflector?
