[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I took this picture on a fishing trip last fall, the sun had just come up and was warming my back while I was gliding along on the water in my canoe, trolling for Brook Trout. It was a little crooked, since I was sitting in a canoe, but I tried to rotate as best as I could, however I still somewhat feel it could still be straightened out.

Hello TK,
Great landscape with the criss cross trails of jets in the prominent blue sky & water with mirror reflection. TFS.
Regards-Ranjan

Hello Ti,
This is an excellent shot. Very beautiful with amazing colors and details. Very lively. Great exposure.
One thing that you could have tried doing on this one to increase the impact of this picture was to crop it and centre the trees and the reflection. Trying a workshop..see if it' useful.

P.S. I may have increaed the light a little more than what would have looked better :)

Hello Ti KI,
Very nice capture, beautiful colors, lovewly light and very nice reflections, good sharpness and depth of field, nice presentation, good frame.

Nice reflection! You captured this one very well with the dark blue sky, well done. And keep on Treken. Cheers Josh Lewis.

Hello Tina.
Sure, maybe it could use another .05 rotation, but there is something about the way it drops off that seems to warrant how you have it now.
The colours and cloud reflections are very nice to see.Rather than go in a workshop I will say it here. The suggestion of crop is not necessary. I think the amount of water needs to be there for the reflection impact. If anything it could have had more top.
Anyways...I like it.

Hi Tina, I like this shot of the lake. Your local contrast is excellent, making that water look wet. Lighting is good giving us excellent colour and great sharp detail throughout.

Thanks, John

Hi Tina,

This is a really lovely shot - what a place to do be gliding about in a canoe, must have been so peaceful...!

The nice simple composition and stunning colours make this shot work. Excellent use of the polariser too.

ps Looks pretty straight to me!

Thanks
Doug

Hi Ti,
It's a beautiful photo. Light, colors, exposure control, composition, POV, and effect of the CP look very good. TFS

Hi Ti Ke
An awesome photo. I love the light and colours you have captured. You have received some nice critiques but I wouldnt change a thing...I like it as you have captured it.
Cheers

Hello Ti,
Good saturation in colors; you applied the polarizer very effectively.
Beautiful photo.
Well done

Hi Ti

Great shot. It is beautiful. I like the fact that I can see more of the sky in the reflection that I can in the sky. It adds that little extra making you look harder...

Hi Tina
Beautiful picture. I always admire pictures with reflection in the water. Very nice POV and perfect sharpness.
Nice colours as well.
Just a bit too dark in left lower corner, but taht could be also my screen.
Thanks for sharing

Hello Tina,
Nice shot, the colours are very beautiful !
I agree with crop of Kirti but i think the sharpness was already good.
