 I thought the leaves in the puddle overlaying the dead branches of the tree reflection made an interesting composition.

Not much used to shooting this type of subject though, so I'm not sure how it will do. Compositionaly I think that it lacks a focal point.

Hi,

Reminds me to some extent of my "Pond at Rancho San Antonio," though yours is so much more beautiful A 9.

Interesting, overdone in my opinion and not surrealist. 4

Fantastic job with the reflection. Is it simply a tree reflected in a pool of water?

I love the look of this photo.
At first I only saw the tree. but something looked weird about it so I stared at it some more. It took me a while to notice the ripples and understand this was a reflection.
the feel and look of this is very surreal to me. Great work! (8)

Nice idea. The composition works ok. Wondering if it were possible to get more "ripple" in the water, the effect makes the shot, but as is, it is nearly lost, in fact may be missed by quick voters.
