I find your answer to him plain rude.

Point taken, comments ammended.

This photo is lovely. No vote, but a fav!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/01/2010 02:44:25 PM
I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: Ursula - this is lovely, I have this image and the 1x version up on my screen while I type this and unusually I prefer this slightly smaller version - is it a bit sharper? I also prefer this image to your similar 'running water' - this one seems to have more life somehow. I really love the colours here too, the bronze with the copper oxide green is wonderful

Critical stuff: My eye is never drawn away from the wave on the left and I wonder how a square crop of the left side of the image might look.

Overall: Quite lovely.
