Wow Jim, this is a MAGNIFICENT capture, hope you didn't get wet. Love the sky & great textures of the dried up water lilies. Looks like a storm is coming in, run for it. BRAVO my friend.

Really good Jim. It really has a lot to look at and it's very well done. I'm thinking I know your technique here and I do like it. =^..^= sandi ♪

The photo is really good,it is very nice with the plants on the water,furthermore the sky,trees and colors are very nice too.

Fine Focus Throughout Jim.
The Dying Lilies and Changing Colors tell a Story all their own.

FaveD!

I found such a place like this as well JimboB. I will return in the summer for those lilly pads. It is not an area as big as this. I am glad you posted this because now I won't have to post one.

Just a great post and I really like the effect.

Fabulous take mate...this is brilliant....

Gorgeous image with wonderful colors. I love the low angle and that sky is just amazing.

Jim, wonderful work with the colors and composition.

I like the angle and the brown plants in the lake. Also the clouded sky gives the image a dramatic look. Very well done!

All of them have been quite nice Jimbob. This shot looks wonderful with that brooding sky and the colourful trees:

A good composition Jim. I like the autumn colors and the dramatic sky. Good work.

A Gorgeous capture..in every way..

FAVED...this is another really fantastic capture. Again, you have great clarity here.

What a neat perspective. There is that wonderful silver water again. I love these subtly beautiful colors and that great sky.

I love the foreground in this JimBob. The jumbled, dry leaves that we've seen in other shots, but beautifully presented here. They give a real sense of depth to the shot and there's a nice contrast between the warmth of the leaves and the smooth coolness of the water. The background's not quite as successful for me - trees and clouds look a bit fake, I wonder if it's from HDR - but it all comes together to make a great image. Your work just keeps getting better from where I'm standing JimBob.

What an interesting work! Congrats and Happy New Year :-)

I had to take another looksee. I'm so proud of you!
Joanie
