Just Below The Surface (v.2)

I've posted two versions of this one in my "florida" folder, this oneis a color version, the other is b/w with a slight sepia tone, whichdo you prefer?

I took this photo in a creek bed, where the wateris so shallow it couldn't even cover the leaf. I found beautifulpatterns in the sand, mixing with reflections of the surroundingtrees. Does this capture it well?

Thanks for your time, yourratings, and your critiques. -- Daniel, http://www.takemytrip.com">takemytrip.com.

Nice framing and compostion, Daniel. Seems like it could benefit from a contrast boost which might also richen the colors. cc
