Invitational Challenge Level: Experienced

Challenge link: total. Perfect assessment of the brief and exercises many facets of the challenge.

Image critique: excellent in all respects. Great choice of focus and composition is clearly sound. I do wonder what it would look like in mono too - even more illusive I should imagine. If anything this is one shot that may have benefited from a border, as the colours wash out a bit next to the DPC grey.

Out-of-challenge appeal: I'll definitely revisit this one and I'm sure many others will appreciate it.

Absolutely wonderful effect. Great colors...soft and very well composed. If I could change one thing it would be to see just a little more of the face detail...not easy with this reflection...9

Very nice moody color and reflections/composition, quite an abstract look to it...

One of the stronger entries. I like the overall look of this piece. The reflections add a lot of character. 7

a very interesting image with good impressionistic feel. The colors are great and the the ambiguity between sky and water works very well. The image speaks well and If I could resolve the mystery created by the walking figure I would feel better. The darkness seem to suggest that the figure is carrying something. bumping up.

alittle to blured it doesn't come into focus when i view it from a small distance so it doesn't master the idea of impressionism.
