I have been goofing around with some old pictures. I added the reflections to THIS picture from more than a year ago.

You not only added the reflections but also cleaned up the river - LOL! Good job Jimbob looks quite real with the blurring of the reflections.

Perfect manip Jimbob. Like to repeat what I've said before: if you didn't tell us that the reflections were added, I would have taken for granted that this was an original image of Toledo, Ohio. Great work again my friend.

Nicely Manipulated!! I had to look really hard to tell it wasn't a natural reflection. I like it very much. Love the colour contrasts in this one. Lyn.

Wow, you did a great job on this for sure! The only thing I would suggest is to remember the law of thirds..and not cut the photo totally in half, but instead in thirds...Other than that you really did great on this. Verena

Nice work you did on this one, what a difference from the original. And the original was good, just not as vibrant.
