The soft colors in this photograph make it look like it could almost be in a painting. I enjoy the bits of green peeking through the trees. Nice work!

Good relaxing shot, the reflection is great and it looks very symmetrical. It gives a sensation of winter.

I like the way the colors blend in the reflection from the water. The foliage (or the lack of it) in the top most part looks a bit busy and diatracting. Maybe cropping it out might simplify the image.

Personally i like the foliage, it makes the shot look natural. Beautiful.

The reflection looks a bit unreal. Or its just a defect. Overall shot is great but reflection is extended downwards which make it look very unrealistic like it was edited in Photoshop. Reflection is not proportional to the elements above the water. I see that this shot was adjusted but I personally like when things look realistically proportional.

I think it could have been a better shot..but it still looks nice and calm! :)

This photo entirely un-retouched (other that a slight crop the straighten the horizon). It looked like that.

Psychedelic, extra-terrestrial juxtaposition.
