    The whole point of a different shot is aimed at making people pause and think about possibly a different angle, a different point of view, anything different and of course I mean it in a good way. People see puddles and a lot of them avoid puddles to avoid getting dirty/wet which comes with it. I believe that the reason we are called photographers is our different look at the very same usual subject and to come up with a "new/different" something which will cause people pause and to think, probably to reconsider the way they look at a dirty, muddy puddle. Again, as I mentioned, I don't expect everyone to connect with this shot and I agree that this is a controversial shot, and even partially agree with the distracting objects. Anyway, I thank you all for your time and for watching and commenting :) I think this shot already has done it's purpose :) Made people pause and to consider it :) PS Michael, I simply removed the distracting objects and I have attached the result, I shall agree with you that it looks better now, so thanks again :)

  2. Dear Julie H, respectfully, you are entitled to your opinion, but there is no need to be untactful. (that's the best word I could use for your comment!!!) You may say that you don't like this photo, or you can't connect with it, but that's all! You know what? I just checked your photos in your portfolio and guess what, I cannot connect with any of your shots!!! But that is all I am going to say about your THINGS! and that is fine, as it is my opinion! I hope that you will grow up and learn how to comment on someone's photo. Have a good day Julie!

    Dear John Stewart and Michael Linder, this photo is particularly shot regarding a challenge called Puddles. Yes, the original photo was upside down and I flipped it vertically and did a bit of tweaking. There are photos that you take to win a price and there are others that you post just because you like them. This photo is the latter. I don't expect everyone to connect with it or necessarily like it, but I like this photo, the same way I like my other shots :) There are different subjects in my portfolio and I hope that you will like some of them :) Regardless, I thank you both for your tactful comment/critiques :)

  3. Many thanks Gerry for your kind comment and constructive critique. This particular spot has been photographed millions of time and it is really difficult to come up with a new angle. I had to literally get into water in the cold Winter to get this image and my aim was to match the notch on top of the rock with the notch of the Cradle Mountain image in water to create harmony in a new angle. Many thanks again, respectfully, Mehrdad.
