This picture was taken last fall at Beaver Lake (Stanley Park, Vancouver). The water was extremely calm, so I decided to drop a leaf in and take a picture of it. This is the result.

Very good shot. The branches at the bottom give it a slightly warped perspective. i would have liked to see them at the top of the image. Also, have you manipulated the colours in this image? Because you could do a lot just by messing around with the saturation, brightness and contrast. Easy to do and good results.

Good luck!

Excellent composition. The text element adds well, too. Good job.

Very cool shot. I really like the simplicity of it. Agree with Raziel's comment, with a little enhanced saturation you could add nice deep blues to the reflections and bright red to the leaf. Regardless, a lovely shot!

Very nice results...great reflections and definately a welcome sky in this part of the country. National anthem stuck in my head though;-)

The balance of the composition is well done as is the wording. I also wouldn't mind seeing this with the saturation adjusted. Nice work.

Thanks for all the comments! I'll play around with the saturation and if I like the result I'll post a new version of this image.

i think this is a fabulous image the way it is.. maybe it could be improved, maybe not, but i'm satisfied :) i must say, the reflections are stunning, great work there!
and the leaf is a full guess, it looks like a poor lonely soul wandering through the infinity, seeking to find a friend.. or at least a companion in this image, heh :)

great composition and an excellent idea.. thank you for sharing it with us :)

I like this image, but the lettering I could do without:

with lettering: 7/10
without lettering: 9/10

I guess I just have a penchant for images rather than words as my art form of choice.

Great shot and wonderful presentation. Everything is balanced very well and adds to the wall.

This is nice! I love the text- the font is really cool. This reminds me so much of my "individuality" image, it's almost creepy... doodoodoodoo.... Anyways I like it a lot- great job :->
