Something different for me – what do you think?

 

Thanks for looking.

... very good light colors and reflection ...

A very good shot. Beautiful colors and nice composition.

this is very nice image Mike, reagards Przemek

Great selection of the diagonal arrangement. BR Joerg

Mike: Simply beautiful. But I must ask, is the reflection real or clever PS work? Tom

Thank you all for stopping and leaving your kind comments. They are much appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Mike

 

I wish I had that kind of skill Tom :). No all natural - this little part of the small lake is in a sheltered area and the day itself was fairly still. Getting down low (maybe 18 inches above the water) made it possible to see the long reflections.

 

All the best,

Mike

 

i really enjoy the curvature that the diagonal makes. its fun to follow it(bottom to top) and be surprised by it. real photos that i like because they are real, are from people like you. simplicity; no poetry, no manipulation should we call it : Realism? or they do allready? thanks for leaving your name behind ratings. makes a difference.

Mike,

 

You caught me off guard with this one.

I don't know what to think of the diagonal effect.

 

(this may take some time to get used to it.)

I’m glad you like the diagonal Romeo, and Dug, I understand what you mean – this is a new approach for me and it will need some experimentation until I am completely comfortable with it. Thanks guys for your comments.

 

Cheers,

Mike

Very out of the ordinary, which I love. Beautiful capture and fantastic colors. The reflecions are amazing and your presentation is very professional. Take good care Mike and all the best from Jannica

MIke: If you can find photos that good you don't need PS. Tom

Tonality, reflections and the red bridge as eye catcher - extraordinary. The tilted horizon is the creative touch of the artist and a question of personal taste, I guess. Compliments - El

Superb colours and composition. I like the reflections too. Very carefully done. Regards, Stamoulis.

Thank you Jannica, Tom, El and Stamoulis – your kind words are much appreciated.

 

All the best,

Mike
