*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*
Congratulations on the ribbon, a great result for a great image that fully meets the challenge.
I must begin by admitting that I have never consciously used the Orton effect myself so I am not best qualified to assess how effectively it has been used here. However, I can benefit from your high score and all the very positive comments you have received here and the conclusion is that you have been very successful with your entry, well done.
With regards to the image itself I find it very pleasing I particularly like the distant foggy background, the placing of the tree, the shape of the trunk, the perfect reflection it all ties together very nicely indeed. I am, like you, a very keen fan of the square crop which again works very well too. Probably the only minor technicality I can suggest is that the ISO may have been better at 100 assuming the camera supports it but most modern cameras are still good well beyond this so its not really an issue.
Thank you for submitting such a beautiful image it is a real pleasure to be given your image for critique, Sid |

 Neat It originally was a landscape crop but when I was cropping it square for IG it just seemed like a better crop to me. Have always been a huge fan of a square crop, use to shoot specifically for it in my film days. Now IG has kind of ruined the uniqueness of a square crop :-( |

| Gorgeous. I don't like how the tree ends on top, so I'd have cropped it to the edge. But that's just me |
