Heron reflection Re-Post

[Nick Palmieri]

This image was originally made using the ripple effect tutorial suggested by Denise. After suggestions regarding the center of the image being a bit busy and not enough room on the sides, I cut out the center then I used "content awareness scale" in CS4 to add to both sides.

Here is the original post.

Hi Nick, Definately a stronger image than the previous post. If you look on the left side of the image I noticed that the center line is broken. You used the effect well!

very good effort Nick....a definite improvement.
Could take a bit more softness in bottom....sometimes reducing sat or contrast
will render a realistic reflection....IMHO

Nick, I think this is a nice improvement from the original and I like the effect. I think you did a great job w/ the rendition-I also agree that a bit less saturation in the reflection will help to make it more realistic.

Very good Nick this time. :) I would only work on that distinct line across the center of the image. :)
