 Wake of S V Wahine, shot by leaning over the side as we were rounding a curve in the local river at sunset. PP; iPhoto 08- Straighten horizon, Crop to square, Brightness, Levels, White balance, Noise. Copy to Graphic Converter ; Size in steps to 720 square, adjust filesize to rules. Save for upload.
I didn't know about the challenge when I shot this, as we were just returning on the boat from the Florida Keys back to the home dock at LaBelle, a 3 day trip. I am curious to see how it will do in this advanced editing challenge. My guess is about 5.3.

Brilliant colours and patterns. At first I thought you'd used some sort of ripple filter.

I think this would make an awesome abstract by completely cropping out the horizon, tree, and sky. Very pretty.

OOOOOO, WOW, this is beautiful! There are two different images here, the sky and the trees, in one side, and the water and the ripples, waves, on the other. I understand that it is difficult having a sharp photo with a 6.7 aperture, but I wish there was a bit more definition on the far field, like the clouds and the trees. The water itself is beautiful, it would be beautiful to have the lower part of the photo on a physics textbook. And the colours are beautiful, very nice, dynamic and appeased at the same time.

Nice graphic image, but it's too over saturated for me, and the background seems blurry.

Neat effect on the water, but looks way overprocessed.

I would have liked to have seen some of the blue in the sky, but the color play on the ripples is beautiful.
