hi simonka,
I like this type of work but don't know how detailed it would be to do so.
I like the clarity of the picture as the rings capture some of the leaves in them.
I like the rays of color coming from the sun and not disturbing the clarity of the reflection.
nicely done.
thank you for sharing.

I like this innovative, abstract submission. Love the pond view with the sunbeams coming in addition to the rings which do fire the imagination and the fantasy. Thanks for sharing.

This is indeed creative thinking Simonka, and I think what you have done is actually working well. This is a sort semi abstract with the circles you have added, but of course with a realistic touch because of the landscape in the background.

The photo you have used is also nice and sharp with an all over good exposure, but I think the sun in the upper left corner is a bit distracting. Not necessarily if the landscape was presented on its own, but because you added the circles.

The photo is cropped into a nice format, and I think the circles are well placed within the frame. Indeed an original image with a well taken photo and a creative edit.

    I agree, unfortunately, it backfired.. looking for some depth, Got glare instead! Always a learning experience, especially from a pro!

    I am not a pro. LOL Good to hear that you agree though, and you are more than welcome for the review.

This is amazing. I love how you used your fabulous background for these circles. It really works well with the pond. Your background is also beautifully done with the rays of the sun pouring out over the pond. Great job.
