The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
On my usual walk at a park here in Charlotte NC. Just having fun and captured this Idea. Kept my image pretty natural and hopefully the light works in having brightness and darkness.
Specific Feedback
Maybe more contrast would work in this image. I did’t do much editing. Cleaned up a few spots.
Technical Details
ISO 640 SS 400 f11 edit in photoshop

Gill, I like the idea and the composition. The blurred area next to the primary tree trunk grabs my attention and puzzles me. It seems out of kilter with the rest of the image.
The whole image is kinda off kilter. Just a weird grab shot I found interesting. Always looking for something different and unique. No Rules.
Thanks for showing interest.
Shooting through water can distort and make things weird. Up my alley in some ways. I have No Rules when it comes to photography and music. My friend Cole Thompson and Bill Guerrant have taught me that. As long as it feels right. So many Great images on the NPN. Because of the vision and it feels right.
I like this one, Gill. I like the puzzle of it all. Is it a shadow? A reflection? Half and half? I settled on the latter, and find the lines and tonality pleasing. I might be inclined to crop just a tish off the top edge. The horizontal branches up there pull away from the flow of the rest of the image.
Thanks for showing interest. Ill see about a new crop. Shooting through clear water can make an interesting shot. Kinda abstract and questions the eye. Whats going on here. ??? The trees were actually more a shadow on the bottom but there is some reflection going on as well. Just walk and look around and there is something there. As Photographers On any level , We see things differently. We all try to capture that thing that moves us. Thanks again Happy Holidays
