It's good to see, where you stayed the last weeks and here it is.
The picture is composed in a fine way, indeed with the reflections in the water. I also like the tiny part of the red flowers and also this is "reflected" in the corner on the other side:-)).
Nice shot, something else from you..... amateur:-))

Hello Kathleen!
You did it well. The beautifull reflects on the waters do the right thing.

Well done.

I don't know what to think, Kat. You used a great compo, including the entire reflection of the building... On the other hand, I think the colours are a bit flat, and I think you oversharpened it. The windows near the middle of the shot, for instance, suffer from jaggies. But it is also noticeable in the green on the right...
Anyway, TFS and have a lovely Easter.

Of course you had to show us the clinic, Kat. And I am glad you leave the photography of buildings to others - most of the time. In fact the reflection is a lot more interesting that the overexposed, pale hospital building. And believe me, I appreciate how you picked the color for your signature heart from the only flowers in sight.

This is one of your best, if not, the best.
You did well capturing this site. Excelent composition keeping the reflection. Spot on Focus and exposure.
Bravo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kat, digital so far will not capture whites properly, hopefully the manufacturers will get it right. Whites are always "hot," whether it's a compact or DSLR.

Nice work kat, and the reflection is good as well. This might have been hard to do but maybe the angle you chose would have been better higher up in the air say on a hill or something like that. Also maybe a polarizer or skylight filter for the clouds and sky.

Wow Kathleen, 4 weeks in a hospital must have seemed like forever, I spent 10 days one time and thought I'd never get out! I applaud your courage, and still out taking photos, this one is lovely with the reflections in the water. You made this stark building seem more hopeful, as it should. I like the touch of red of the flowers on the right, wish there were more of them. Nice lighting and blue sky. I'm not an expert at architectural photos either, but this one is pleasing to the eye.

You have a very good point of view and composition for the photograph of this building. I can show you how to make the reflections better by enhancing the original. See the WS I did. i hope this makes you feel better.
