This is an outstanding (in a pond) shot! Congrats on the blue. The reflection is a good part of what makes this image cool. Well thought out, good teamwork, and nicely done.

What a wonderful wet place. The color looks like it was shot on a full moon night. If you do shoot this sort of thing at night with moon light, you can use tungsten white balance, and get a beautiful blue sky.

In Bloom

Waxy plants like this are very difficult to photograph well due to the highlights reflected in the shiny surfaces of the plant. I have tried shooting this same variety of plant bloom, and I can't get it to look quite right.

[user]macronothing[/user] has already covered most of what I see in the image. You may want sometime to try setting up with a tripod, and frame up a shot using manual focus, and breathe on the lens. Shoot as the lens is clearing up, and sometimes you can get a nice foggy morning effect. With the stocking, I would experiment with different apertures using aperture priority to see what setting gives the best look, and try to remember that f setting for future shooting.

Colors and the vertical composition are eye catching. The motion blur make it seem that the scene is much larger than the photo can capture.

Tampa inbound

What a pretty shot. Love the water in the foreground in this image. It's a good clear, sharp aerial shot.

The last time that I had to go to the airport at St Pete, at the other end of this bridge, I missed an exit on 275 and had to cross all the way into Tampa and then back across this bridge to get back to St Pete. It was about a 25 mile round. We got there just in time to catch the flight. I'm glad I left early that morning.

It's a bummer that you didn't shoot this in the right time frame for the "Dappled Light" challenge. It's a pretty place, and photographed with nice style.
