Brilliant Capture, Louise !!! beautiful tones and lighting, it pays to look down and in close sometimes.

And thanks Phil too!

Stunning, Louise. I love reflections like this. Colours are exquisite.

So cool! I love the textures that the ripples give things.

Beautiful shot, looks like a painting.

like it alot

Very Texturous! Beautiful colors!! :D

awwh thanks Mark, Derid, Funky, Ross and Paul – always appreciated :)
Love that “texturous” word Paul…should be added to the dictionary!!

What an amazing shot Louise! Could totally get lost in the world of reflections…beautiful work!

I just love the abstract patterns water makes. The colours here are gorgeous!

I love the gold blur and that little spot of blue,great textures.

Very attractive image Louise.
This is a favourite subject tof mine, but of course it doesn’t always work as well as this.

Very nice…

I agree with Paul, amazing texturosity,colour saturization, and tranquiluminosity. Well done Louise.

Beautiful work Louise…........

Wonderful visionary shot! Congrats and more power!

Just like an abstract painting… I like it !

Beautiful colors and light!Well done

Thanks everyone for your words of encouragement – really great!!

Stunning shot Lousie,love the reflected colours.

I love this!! i love the rich browns – like a golden sheet shimmering against the light – its superb – this such a rich image – full of beautiful colours and light and texture. Great work Louise.

Well seen, Louise! I thought at first this was a digital creation…..lovely natural abstract!!!

Thanks heaps Alistair, Deb and Rany – really appreciated
Deb, you have such a way with words :)
Rany, yes, I agree, it does look digital! But just some levels, curves and colour balance – the wind did the rest!

so much more engaging that the usual still water reflection. the ripples add everything to this shot in the way they bend the light and reflections. simply beautiful.

a very well scene image.
great work Rich.

great reflection – like a painting

Almost hypnotizing work, very beautiful combination of colours!

Great work! I like it!

incredible and artistic…

Wonderfull shot Louise.

love the colors!

Brilliant work Louise.

Good timing Louise! Yes, gazing at the ripples on the water – such a serene feeling, good for the soul.

Fabulous colour and composition

Excellent capture Louise, it does look like abstract art well done.

Hey Louise, this totally works for me as an abstract in that each time I look I see something more in it… like a face, a puupy dog, a horse`s head, a drunk woodpecker… jeeze, I could go on forever. For me an image is a success when you want to go back and look and never get bored. That`s what I get with your Ripples. Plus the fact your composition is so cleverly laid out with the gradual change of tones and texture from the bottom to the top, and the blue part (that mean, blue-billed bird that`s pissed off at being stuck in a can sitting on top of that blue dinosaur`s head) is so perfectly placed as a focal point. What a wonderful image!

Billy, I want some of what you’re on!!!! Thank you for your whacko but awesome comment! My search for the mean blue billed bird stuck on a dinosaur’s head continues!!!

Beautiful capture dear lady:) My compliments!

Very beautiful. The heart of the planet.

stunning work! (ps thinks hmmm could be ideal for ‘colours of water’ group !!)

I just went back and SAW the angry blue billed bird and dinosaur !!!! really!! (I need help ….!)

Gorgeous!!

Amazing- the colour and pattern transitions are superb.

Really really like this a lot! Such rich texture. Wonderful abstraction.
