This is quite an abstract. The colors are very bright and I think you have a good artistic eye to see the color and design in this image.

I like the vibrant color you have in this one. I wonder if a square crop of just the right side would work with the great lines on that side?

Love the colors Nancy. I like Morris' crop idea, but this is nice as is with those greens.

Patience

Don't know how you see these, but they always seem to turn out extremely well.

Nancy ..this is fantastic work. As a person who works on water reflections/abstracts, I feel this is very artistic. One suggestion ...if you dont mind. I would have gone in for a tighter crop, so that the greens on the top left is reduced, and would have also gone in for more dof so that the bottom right is sharp and the lines showing up clearly.....

well done Nancy

Cool! Very vibrant. I agree with the others regarding tighter looks--less is almost always more when it comes to abstract work IMO. For example, i can see a real super comp of just the extreme urhc here--just 1/5 of the shot as a whole. If the small crops work better for me than the whole, then i can usually safely say too much was included--which is not to say that the whole shot here isn't real nice--i think it's terrific!

Love the luminosity and vibrant colors, Nancy. The "ribbons" of color give your composition great movement.

Nancy,

Love this one. I don't know where you find this stuff, but you keep coming up withsome great natural abstracts. I wouldn't change a thing here - great color, clarity and the processing looks great to me. Well done!

It is amazing what the camera will record.
You must have had some idea and that it the eye of the photographer.
Nice work.

Very abstract. But I do love the vibrant colors. I agree with the others about the crop idea.

Thanks for all your comments. Here is the suggested crop. I do believe it does make a more powerful image. Appreciate the help.
