Rob very poetically assessed this shot beautifully. AMEN. |

Dreamscape, ethereal quality. :)
As long as this isn't for challenge, if it were my image, I would take a little of the water and clouds off the bottom and add them to the top, and give the swan on the left a little more headroom to the left. I'd also clone out the bushes in the upper right. |

| The virtue of the reflection, as it were, is that water and sky become one, the elements are merged. That's very good. Compositionally, it's not working so well for me, especially with the distraction upper right, which anchors it in a way that isn't working... If you tried cloning those bushes/reflections out, I think you'd find the whole effect worked better. |

| Perfectly suited for non-sharpness - dreamlike and elegant. |

The longer I look at this the more it intrigues me, the blur makes it harder to distinguish what is real and what is reflection. It's like a dream where they could just as easily be floating on a cloud. Very beautiful.
