    This is a bubble I caught up with yesterday on the surface of a pond at our local botanical garden. It was close to midday when it was shot so I found all this great color bouncing around underneath the water when I got home. I did do some post-processing, bumping up the undertones of the water and I also did a very heavy crop.

    Hi Julie,
    I really enjoy this one. You should go back and rotate the canvas about 2 degrees CCW so the bubble is level...........other than that....perfect placement, beautiful color, and very well seen.
    Very nicely done,

    Agree on the rotation, great compo, small subjects should be place close to the corners. Great going and killer water!

    I like the bubble and the soft colors, and agree with the rotation. Nice and sharp UFO. Looks like a little flying saucer! :)

    Very nice! Great idea. I agree with the leveling idea, so, I tried it. I had to do it about 4 times before I got what I think is level! I also placed a "rule of thirds" grid over the leveled image and then cropped to put your bubble on the upper left spot. I reposted to see what it would look like, as I feel that the "preview post" sometimes doesn't look like the actual repost.

    Great job, Dan! Isn't it amazing how little tiny tweaks can make such a difference?
