One of the first pictures I ever took of a pond behind my high school.

This seems to me like a valiant attempt to create an interesting image that failed in the execution. Well, mostly the jpg creation. It's pretty small, and you've got some major compression issues.
neither composition nor content of this image carry much of interest. technicals are quite poor - tilted, blown lights, grainy, unsharp. rebate at edges makes me think this is a scanned image.
Seems a bit snap-shotish. I shouldn't complain since apparently mine is as well. But it has potential with a little work on contrast, sharpness. Perhaps a different crop too.
this is not necessarily a bad shot, but it doesn't speak to me...it seems to be a bit dull...did you straighten this and crop it leaving white on the edges?
