Singularity

I found this single stone in a tarn in the Yosemite High Country. This was back in July during a trip up that way with Harley.

This was cropped from the bottom. I would have liked to have had a higher view point in order to achieve more separation between the stone and reflection, but Harley forgot to bring the ladder. I think this works well, as is, though.

This is even nicer than your last post. I like the simplicity and nicely textured fore ground.

Preston, I really enjoy this one! I'm with David and think this is even nicer than the other one. Very nice...even without the ladder Harley forgot!

This works really well for me, Preston. Love the quiet, reflective mood it evokes. The soft colors and tones seem just right for this photo. Well done. Chet

yes, i can see that a touch more separation would make it a(n even) strong(er) image. blame harley. but this makes for a striking image, made all the more so by the soft blues. well done.
