i like the shadow the tree leaves on water, i find the left up corner a bit disturbing (the way it comes over)
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Brilliant shot for this challenge. Love the effect on the water.

A few nitpicks are: oversaturate are around the sun, over dodged branch which makes the branch look slightly unnatural in the whole image.

Wonder how a tighter crop on the tree might have looked? 6

Gorgeous colors, light, and long exposure effect. Gorgeous everything. A masterpiece. Has blue written all over it.

Ribbon, I'm going to guess. Love the colours.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is a very pretty and colorful scene. Not sure if I feel that it fully meets the challenge, as the tree probably suffers more decay at the hands of the salt water than the weather.
 07/12/2010 05:45:56 PM
nicely done!
 07/12/2010 03:07:45 AM
love the colors and the contrast between stationary tree trunk and the movement of the water. great shot. 9
