Lovely reflection. Perfect title (I remember the scene in the movie). Lovely softness to it.

I'm reviewing the thumbnails again and this is a stand out. The white of the gazebo against the muted deeper tones is just so strikingly beautiful. The hint of the tree silhouettes in the dark background is a nice touch. Think I'll go sing "Sixteen Going on Seventeen." Thanks for a beautiful image. 9

Fabulous shot. Excellent sharp focus on the moth - with excellent DoF.

Man, that's funny! Posing a dead dragonfly! haha. Nice shot, and nice DOF. I think the pose looks natural, wouldn't have ever guessed he was dead unless you told us. Was a flash used? I just wondered about the 'tail' reflecting light...could just be the colors though.

Comment by tsheets:
This *is* a very cool and moody shot, even if you added the water/reflections in post. The only wish I have with it is for the moon to be a bit more visible so it's immediately recognized as such. The viewer can deduct that it's a moon shot, which I suppose many people would prefer, but my simple mind likes things more 'in your face' sometimes.

Really wish you had done better on this one. It looks a bit over-processed, but the shot is perfect. The striking difference between the two apparent moods of the animals is fantastic. Very well done!

This is a very serene image. I think I'm going to have to bump this up to a 7. Good luck!
