Another in the Swamp Series

I think the grass in the foreground is a bit distracting and in general, you could probably zoom in a tiny bit more / work on the angle slightly. Make it more of an abstraction and I think you have a winner. Try a vertical shot where you are capturing a sort of "half and half" shot with a few trees and their relfections, along with the green algae stuff.

Hello,

I have to agree with the grass being distracting, although I think it probably 'anchors' the shot if you know what I mean (not quite sure I do really). I can't fit the whole image on my screen and so when I scroll to see the top of the image it cuts the grass off and I like it that way. I think because you can imagine a sense of 'forever' in the shot - like being in the middle of something that doesn't end?.?.? I love the texture and colour in your shot... a purely aesthetic comment

Thanks for taking the time to provide such encouraging and constructive comments. I'll redo the post processing before I print.

Thanks for the tips. I will rework the shot!
