Challenge: Barns, Farms or Rural Countrysides (Advanced Editing VII)
Camera: Canon EOS-600D/T3i Rebel
Location: England
Date: Sep 24, 2013
Aperture: 11.0
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/40
Date Uploaded: Sep 24, 2013

 Not ideal light (midday sun) but beautiful reflections in a still pond in Hampstead Heath, London.

Shot on a Canon EOS 600D w/ a Sigma 17-50 2.8.

Post-production was mainly in Lightroom for exposure / wb / colour correction, and a touch of sharpening in Photoshop.

This is my first ever submission so would appreciate some constructive critique, particularly on post-production ideas for making the image more interesting.

Beautiful capture of reflections, particularly the swans' necks. Nice placement of the swans in the composition and their white stands out great against the darkness of the water. Would love to spend a day here!

lovely scene, but my eyes are getting lost looking for a place to draw me in

In my view the almost half and half composition lets this down
