Reflections
I took this the other night at a local pond, as the sun set. I think I made a few to many extra casts, when I should have been going back to the car to get the camera, in order to still have had light in the higher branches. Does this work? There were a few ripples caused by people walking across a floating bridge alongside these reflections.

Actually, I think a few more ripples would have been an interesting effect. Thanks for sharing!

Hi Rob, when first looked at I was thinking these trees where taken with the sky behind them. Overall I think things look fine, I might agree that have even more ripples would define the trees and the background even better.
Thanks for sharing.

Hey Rob, I agree with Brad. I too, thought is was trees with a sky background. More ripples would have given an artistic effect to the shot. Great concept. Did you catch anything ?

Thanks for the input. Merle, didn't catch a thing. I took my daughter out there yesterday afternoon for a little more fishing and the water level was a lot higher and a regular fisherman there said everything was slowing down. We didn't catch anything, but Leah had fun trying.
