We had a hard time capturing comps that we were happy with due to the challenging weather conditions consisting of blue cloudless skies and unrelenting wind on a few days. After a cloudless sunrise we headed over to the Tarn where we used the rising sun to capture the autumn reflections in the water.

As always thanks for taking a look and leaving a comment or suggestion.

Excellent work. The comp is what really makes it for me. Love how the water meanders down through the reeds to open up at the bottom with those wonderful lily pads. devil

I love the color on the water and the lily pads with the little bit of metallic sheen. I personally might burn in the top a very little bit, but the bottom is perfect.

Deeeeeelicious!!!! This type of intimate scene really grabs me. I think you composed this perfectly. The colors are beautiful and soft and the entire image is very painterly. Extremely well done Ed.

Beautiful reflection and detail. As the water is the main event to my eye, I might consider a little bit of a crop of the top to give the reflection some more visual real estate. Pretty minor though.

Ed, This worked out very nice. The reflection looks great and the only thing I might consider would be a crop about half way between the top and the brighter yellow. Nice work coming up with something this nice in less than ideal conditions you had.

I sure do like how the glow leads through this image, Ed. A fine mix of real and abstract.
