Worked with this a little and lowered the saturation to make the rock look a little more natural and did not crop so much water in front giving a little depth. This will be my entry into the contest.

I didn't see the original, but I don't think it could be better than this one. Very nicely done.

Yes. This one is quite the fine example of simplicity. Serene, and subtly lit. Nice.
As a personal preference, I think I'd like to see the left side cropped in, bringing the rocks to the left of the frame, and making this a vertical.
In any event, you've shot this nicely. Well done.

I agree with JimBob, Paul. This does look more natural than the first version. A great find nonetheless.
Best wishes for the contest.

I love this one, too, the colors are a bit darker, the scene a bit more peaceful.

Nature in all her glory is my uplift on life and so is my love of photography.

This is a better image. To me it is alot sharper for one thing and that you left more water at the bottom is good also. Nice work.

I like this version much better. The balancing rocks looks more nature against the rippled water. Excellent work Paul & best wishes in the contest.

I like the fact that I can't see the wires and support poles holding this art object upright. :D
Certainly a more natural look in this version, Paul. Wonderful focus and colours. Very nicely presented shot.

Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Very good!! I like the first one still for is fuzzy qualities, it made it seem more mysterious looking, however I like this one equally for its clean cut look, the texture of the rock and the ripples in the water!! All round great work!! and best of luck for the competition!! :)

Paul - Very nice work on this reworked photo - very natural color and lighting - (just like the rock configuration ;-)). Well done! Thad

I loved the color in the other one...but love the more natural look to this one better. Fantastic concept!
