    Mirror Image

    Have been on a sort of nostalgic trip lately looking back over some old B/W prints I printed in my bedroom (darkroom in bedroom then,honestly) some 25-30 years ago. The prints are in a bit of a mess really so I got this one out and gave it a bit of a dressing down.
    What do you think?

    Not a bad composition at all but i think the way the sky appears to be lit with a hallogen lamps take alot out of this image's potential. Maybe retake the shot or remove this heavy glow, put some grays/ mid tones back in the water and sky.

    Thanks Laurie for your comment.
    The tops of the trees are indeed a bit funny and I'm not too sure what the reason for that is.
    On the day there was a 'skyless' sky almost pure white. When I photoshopped it I was trying to have the water exactly as the sky.
