I just don't get it. I mean, I don't get how this didn't score any higher.
The simplicity, the reflection, the gradient: al these elements are contributing to the calmness in this photograph. Looking at it, my eyes go from top left to bottom right to find a place to rest on. This is the reed with the most sharpness and is the resting place for the eye. The fact that the other reeds are not as sharp, gives that part of the photograph calmness.

I'm glad to able to tell that I gave one of the 2 9-scores.

Nicely lit scene. those long shadows add a lot of depth, and the clouds are really nice for this scene.

Excellent. Fabulous composition. The intrigue comes from everything not in the frame.

Lost a bit of its magic because the back reeds are not in focus.

Though I do think the better question to ask is, "Are you putting this forward as 'art'?". My answer of course is "No". It's just a really cool image I snagged while driving. Sometimes, there's no rhyme or reason why people like certain images more than others. Could really be anything that triggers a positive response - colour fields, light, subject matter... whatever, it's all good. I'm stoked this one piqued so much interest and I hope I can keep pulling these types of shots off in future.

Nope, it's the sheep - that's what us Kiwi men like ;)

Oh hey, they're cows not sheep. I don't like this shot anymore - where's the button to unfav it gone ;)
