    This is to my eye truly excellent. I don't know if there is a such a term but pseudo realism comes to mind. I really like the reflection of the tree and the positioning of the leaves in the water, I also like the subtle colours. I like the landscape mode I am just wondering what it would look like in portrait.

    Well seen! I like that the main part of the reflected tree is in smooth water and clearly seen, and that there are ripples and reflections surrounding it. The leaves add a nice layer on top of the water. I really like that one cool wide ripple coming in from the right! Good composition with the tree on a shallow, low diagonal.

    I have shot several reflections trying to get one as good as this. The comp is great and that ripple coming in from the right is awesome.

    Thank y ou Jonathan, Nancy and Jack. Autocritic: the image could loook a bit better using in pp curves, levels a minimum contrast. But I'm a bit caotic amidst 2 HD, two Pc. ,one windows one Mac OS. So not always the image is the 'worked'one.

    I'd love to see this with more contrast and color. Taken to well beyond reality it could be spectacular.

    Valerio, I love reflections and I really like this one, especially the composition and as Jonathon mentioned, the real leaves floating on the reflection.
