This is from spring of last year. This is another from a small park area called "the brick ponds" close to home. Huge opportunities for up-close images. All comments and critique sought. Thanks

I like the complexity here Bob, and the muted reflections. I'm not so sold on the comp as there doesn't appear to be quite enough flow (for want of a better word) or structure.

I really enjoy the complexity here. I like the bit of confusion that comes from the sharp foreground elements and the sharp but slightly foggy background elements. Great job of seeing. Have you tried cropping from the right almost to the main elements? That looks like a different but possibly stronger image.

I like how the color stands out against the foggy background. I think a crop from the left would make the red leaves and green grasses stand out better.

This is an interesting composition and a hard one to make out in a web jpeg. On the web it looks a little too chaotic to focus on. However, I wonder if I saw it as a 11x14 print, my take on it would be totally different.

Fascinating. Getting rid of the few green leaves that intrude from the left would be my only suggestion. the sharp color against the misty reflection is mesmerizing. Just my cup of tea

It's a bit confusing, but the light makes if fun to figure out. Nice depth added by the fog.
