I really like this image. The colors and shapes of the leaves look great and help to bring attention to the submerged leaves. The reflections on the water also look attractive with interesting patterns.

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Fantabulous "superimposed" reflected images!
Creative concept. Innovative approach. Imaginative presentation.
Sharply focused.
Fine features & smooth textures.
Subdued illumination.
Compact framing.
Visually appealing.

Thanks for sharing...

That is a lovely shot. An almost abstract pattern with sombre shadows and leaves barely visible under the water.
Everything in it is spot on, only problem ... you've got a pond ??!

Lee Ann,
A beautiful pucture of this coloured & fallen leaves of a Scarlet Oak tree floating on the surface of your pond & resting on the bottom visible through the water on which the branch is also reflected. Beautiful composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus. I had to look up the species of your tree as these are not found in Ireland.

I like those layers. The water and the leaves beneath it make an exquisite background. The floating oak leaves have still their beautiful autumn colors, but the leaves on the twigs are already black. The photo is well exposed and focused. The colors are realistic. The contradiction of colored and black leaves is intriguing. The tall framing is adequate. The composition is well balanced.

A pretty good entry into the competition posted here! Your fine composition does project that the autumn, is indeed, proceeding in layers and stages. Sharpness and exposure are good. Nicely taken and good luck!

Another visually exciting presentation from you! It is always nice to see alternate approaches. The colours really speak here. The colours are gentle and beautifully compliment each other. Good luck!

This is just GORGEOUS! I love this ! The beautiful autumn leaves floating on the surface of the pond, the leaves that are at the bottom , the dark chocolate plant on the right, it all comes together in a wonderful way, it's very well photographed with good focus, the image is clear, exposure is perfect, the colors and tones are natural. This has strong visual appeal, I just love it! Very well composed and presented! Very best wishes to you in this contest!
