Beautiful softness in the center and nice framing.
 03/17/2009 07:08:54 PM
very peaceful- imo it needs just a,little more pop in the center and a bit less on the right
 03/17/2009 04:05:25 PM
Great reflection, I likethe framing by the nearer orange and red leaves.
 03/17/2009 09:22:07 AM

Excellent capture, the reflections, the stillness of the water the colors and the details are extraordinary.

Great colors and a nice reflection.

Colors are nice but the composition feels rather off balance.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/15/2009 03:23:25 PM
Oh how wonderful! Nicely done--I like the soft colors--looks impressionistic. 9

nice tones and reflection here, Just a tad more contrast would be great, 7

Nice bright foreground colors and wonderful soft colors in the background.

Beautiful colors. This is what I miss most about fall in Southern California. Great reflection. I guess that's a dock in the center, but without getting better definition it might be better to clone out the posts if that's legal.
 03/14/2009 11:05:14 PM
the background color looks a bit flat compared to the forebround nice image all the same
 03/14/2009 10:56:41 PM
I really like how you framed the photo and the reflections are nice.
 03/14/2009 08:57:23 PM
This is stunning.
 03/14/2009 07:56:49 PM
Wonderful colors and reflections.
 03/14/2009 05:26:02 PM
The colors... are amazing They really are
 03/14/2009 04:04:58 PM
Such a magnificent scene. The reflection is great, and the framing by the two closest trees is nice too. It looks like the either the front was oversaturated or the background was desaturated, but the uneveness of saturation looks odd.
 03/14/2009 02:52:06 PM
good use of the foreground foliage to frame the shot
 03/14/2009 02:42:43 PM
Very nice fall colours. Nice contrast, but though it's appears that the trees in the background are the subject of the photograph, they are less contrasts and a bit washed out.
 03/14/2009 11:43:43 AM
all the colors to the left and right are quite vibrant the ones across the lake are quite dull...what would happen if you added a gradient? soft focus
 03/13/2009 10:19:59 PM
I love fall colors
 03/13/2009 07:12:08 PM
Really nice reflections, and I like that you left the colours to be soft, and washed out... works well for this shot.
 03/13/2009 05:32:33 PM
Pretty scene, but I expect more color in a shot of trees in fall. Lowering the brightness on the midtones would help a lot in bringing out the color in the background trees and their reflection.

Nice colours and the reflection is great
 03/13/2009 02:02:09 PM
this is so pretty... and I generally don't like landscapes 9
 03/13/2009 01:44:51 PM
the reflection is very cool, and i love the colors of the leaves in the foreground. it seems a bit foggy on the other side of the water though
 03/13/2009 10:52:42 AM
A great shot, lovely reflections and colours but it lacks in punch and contrast
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 08:38:53 AM
There is a magenta cast. A little disturbing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 04:17:29 AM
lovely pastel colours
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/13/2009 03:38:14 AM
You've really captured that misty autumn look, I bet it was lovely being there too :)

 03/13/2009 01:23:05 AM
Ineresting use of color, so bright on the side and faded in the back. Cool shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/12/2009 10:11:02 PM
Great shot love the colors
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is very sweetly rendered, but it's marred, in my eyes, by a distinct lean to the right. It's as if you rotated to level the implied horizon of the shoreline and the trees and the lamp posts went off vertical. For what it's worth, you can "level" shots like this with the skew tool: working from this version, just skew upper left corner to the left and bring the trees into alignment. Or rotate original to align trees and skew down on the right to level the shoreline if you need to; I'm not sure it's required that the shoreline be pure level, though...

A little out of balance--tighter crop on right might be better
  Photographer found comment helpful.

breathtaking veiw

Pretty as a picture! Looks like a water colour.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 09:39:05 PM
The foliage on the right kinda makes the photo look a little 3 dimensional but unfortunately the background is very dull and hazy. The color are clashing too much for me and there seems to be an array of beautiful colors back there.

 03/11/2009 05:39:07 PM
pretty reflections and great use of the foreground foliage to frame the rest of the image...

Nice but strange

Very pretty colors and reflection. I want a little more darkness to the water but its still pretty.

Lovely colours.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 08:31:48 AM
too saturated in the foreground, which detracts from the main subject, the water's edge in the background
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/11/2009 03:28:01 AM
wow, this is lovely! The muted colors in the subject versus the strong colors on the sides is a nice contrast and helps the photo. Seems a little tilted to the right, but I'm not sure about that.
