Nice image and application, Connie.

Nice abstract.

I might punch the saturation just a tad, if it were mine. But ... your image ... your vision.

Like the color added to the general B&W image.

Very nice abstract indeed. I like the hint of color and the careful framing. I might reduce the size of the border if it were mine but that is just my preference. Well seen in the field Connie!:)

[Steve Adkins]

Super abstract image, Connie. Enjoy the geometry and the flow from right to left.

[Connie Mier]

Thanks all.
Denise, agree with you on the frame. Peter, I messed around with various PS filters and liked most of what I saw because the colors really came out of the reflections nicely. What I thought would be cool is to saturate the reflections with the filter color without affecting the white areas. May try it some day.:)

Connie, this has a nice graphic look to it. I like the composition a lot. Well done:)

[Judy Howle]

I like it very much as it but agree with Denise on the border. I like the touch of color.

I really like this Connie. Love all the cormies and the ones in the water really make it special for me. I like the mildly saturated colors - looks good to me. I feel a bit of a crop from the bottom and the left side, but again, that's just me. :cool: Very nice image.

Lord, this one really floats my boat. I gasped when it opened. Ditto the need for a thin frame. I love your basic image design and the birds in the water put it over the top. I would not mind seeing it all B&W with a thin frame.

Thank you all very much, I am very glad you like this composition and that it can float some people's boats! :)
