Three beans in a skillet ... wasn't that an early sixties song that was popular on Muzak? Quite droll, I like it.

Sometimes I understand why photos do well or poorly at DPC. Frequently my tastes are very different from those of the crowd here. This is a perfect example. I really love this photo. It captures an essential tranquil quality of the woodland garden that is very rarely captured well. I believe this photo deserved to score much better; but whatever the score, thanks for sharing it. It really is quite beautiful.

Super lighting and texture I love how the curvature of the space points to a spot outside the photo, but the stone walls hold the eyes within.

Spout it out

Nice repeated elements, though I find the right hand side a little cluttered. As I imagine cropping more and more of the photo from the right, I get to two or three fountains in the forground and the photo begins to feel uncluttered to me. On the other hand I am on the extreme fringe of advocating for simplicity in photo composition at this site.

If this is at University of Texas, I tried my hand with this fountain some years ago and found my own results failed to capture what I experienced being there.

Lovely shadow. Not quite sure yow you plan to use this tool when the day is done, but that's none of my business.

I like the concept of the wto boats in mirror image. I think the photo would be compositionally much stronger if the reflections in the water were more nearly mirror images.

If you have any photo editing software you may want to be sure that each photo you submit has some black pixels and some white pixels by checking the histograms. In photoshop the information is under Levels. This photo has white but no black. A little sharpening would help, too.

Turning Coffee intoTheorems

Great lighting. The paper on desk and cup all work well together. It's a quibble, but the yellow of the pencil seems to belong to the wrong color palette: natural wood or some other earthtone would be better.

There's a nice glow to the lighting, and the colors gow well together.

That's an enviable box of crayons. Unfortunately all is out of focus except a bit of ear.
