Shot off a bridge looking down at a fisherman. There is major drought in this area but the anglers can get right on the water. I was thinking of that Nirvana song as I was working on it...

Seems a wee bit shoehorned.. How does this conceptualise hell.. without the title, it wouldn't.. not quite sure how to vote on this one.. will come back later an revise.
From this perspective i'm feeling serene. however, i would imagine if you cropped it for the center reflection of the weeds (maybe even flipped it) the whole hell thing would be there.
Beautiful shot! I like the colors and composition. My 2 cents, this should be in 'heaven', not 'hell', though.
I especially like the reflection on the water of reeds - yet they aren't visible on the horizon.
My personal preference would be to have sharpened the image slightly more - a slightly crisper edge to it.
Very good photo!
