Bonsoir Valérie,

it is strange how the sky is so "white" and the reflection of it in the water is so blue. I made a little WS, I hope you don't mind.
I do like the view, the scene and the nice reflection.

amitiés,

Luc.

Bonjour Valérie
Bravo pour cette magnifique photo qui ressemble à une que j'ai déjà faite dans le Maais Poitevin. L'image est très nette et la réflectio est parfaite, ce qui justifie le tire donné à la photo. Très jolie couleurs et une composition très artistique
Bravo encore
Serge

Hi Valerie - that's a great workshop by Scott and it really highlights the importance of writing proper photographer's notes regarding the shot and any pp work you have done. I'm surprised that Lukie didn't notice it as it is fairly obvious. Also, I wouldn't recommend copying Lukies pp work regarding the sky - it just looks very amateurish and is obviously false.

The scene you have captured is pleasant enough but there is some overexposure, your pp work regarding the reflection lets you down and you haven't written a proper note, so sorry - it all falls down for me.

Hi Valerie

a good composition, as shot from your camera, very nice image, good colours throughout, good reflective properties and an excellent pov. a touch overexposed but that's forgivable. thanks for posting this image, and please keep doing so, do not let misinformed and judgemental comments dishearten you. its a small minority that are so suspicious and perhaps jealous.

have two points for the positive aspects i have listed above, thanks.

regards c.d.

Something's fishy with this photo.
The reflection isn't a mirror of the real scene. In the refelction, the trees above the house do not match the roofline in the real scene.
No problem if you removed the or added them but leaving no relevant notes makes us wonder what's going on. lukie did a workshop of it and still didn't mention it.
Any clue as to what went on and why it is different?
Scott
