Watery Impressions

I would like to hear your thoughts on this photo.

 

This was taken in the late afternoon at the Don Valley Brockwirks in

Toronto, Canada. The only 'manipulation' has been some levels work and

white-balancing.

 

While quite pretty this goldfish are an environmental problem. The

ponds in the brickworks are part of the Don watershed and these fish

certainly are not native to the habitat. There are also a pair of

red-eared sliders enjoying the ponds.

I for one like it, I may if it were mine work on it a bit more and perhaps turn it into a painting if not a fine art print bringing out all the colours.

there is a nice balance to this and the colours land exactly were they should.

Ian, very lush and rich. Nice interplay between the surface and what's beneath. Beautiful blue that gives a warm feel, especially as accented by the reds in the leaves and fishies. --Fred

Wonderful picture. I like the contrasts between the complementary red and green colors and the progressive evolution of the palette of blues from top to bottom emphasized by the two red goldfishes in the front. Very good composition. Congratulations. Yves P.

Belated thank yous to Yves, Fred, and Hugh. This is still a personal favourite.

you captured such beautiful colors here....the beauty above and below the waters. congrats on this!

Jacqueline, thank you. It is nice to be drawn back to what I was photographing almost exactly a year ago with such nice comments.
