And I know that the water is not level. I am sure I had the camera level so I do not know what happened there. Optical illusion???  HOSTED PHOTO please log in to view hosted photos in full size.

More info | Oct 23, 2009 09:59 | #2 The foliage you were trying to get is on the far bank? If your idea was to frame it with the tree branch at the top, the trees on the left, and the grass at the bottom, then the image looks like all frame and no subject. I would try to reduce the frame. For example, the area to the left of the trunks is wasted space. Joe

For example, the area to the left of the trunks is wasted space. I never noticed the wasted space until you pointed it out. What about a tighter frame and a lower angle to get more of the foliage on the far bank? I want to keep the reflection on the lake. Creating a lifetime of memories....one picture at a time....

I'm naturally pulled into the pond/lake. I really think you need more of it. This would add better balance, imo. - Jerry | Zenfolio

There is really no where for the eye to go in this picture except to the empty space where the water is.
