Okay, maybe I spent too much time working on abstract photos of watery reflections this weekend but I can't stop seeing angry men in this one! Because of that, I went with a more dramatic, fiery color scheme than I did with the "Gradient Waves" image.
Canon 40D, EF 400mm f5.6L
f8 @ 1/640th, ISO 400
Manual mode, pattern metering, Natural light
Used Nik Color Efex bi-colored filter again on this one. I also believe I ran an Illustrated action over it and then softened the effect by 50%.

Julie, The colors and the pattern are both really nice. I think the treatment looks wild!

OK I can see them too!:) Very interesting patterns and colours Jules. Like the dark ULC to light LRC, gives it a nice balance. Fall is great for reflections.

Nice image and application, Julie.
Funny Julie ... But for some reason, I see a bunch of angry women with very long, sharp fingernails!!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: ;) :D

Julie, Sorry, but there are a number of differences including long hair and finger nails. The branch LC reminds me of a woman's hand. The hair is throughout the image. There is another difference that I cannot explain here. But you probably know it! ;) :D Just seems to me that women are everywhere. But then again... maybe it is just me! :D Still a nice image, whether male or female??? :cool:

I'm really glad you're all seeing different things in this. Unfortunately, it probably means I have issues with men and need to go back to therapy again. :eek::p:eek:
