Comment by tate: my prediction is that this will make the front page. Recognizable in nature, and genuinely flipped; yet still abstract and organic feeling. Nice soft, natural vibe as well.

Well, this was one of my favorites from this challenge, which always makes a critique more challenging. I loved the colors in the sky and the symmetry provided by the reflection. The near silhouette made the image very real for me. I liked the spread of trees through the whole image, but I suppose if I have to find something I thought might be a weakness, the right side of the image seemed a bit heavier with those larger trees and the movement of the clouds seem to stop over on the right. (My brain is very concrete, so likes complete symmetry a lot, the little tree on the far left just didn't stand out as strongly as the other trees.)
But you scored very highly in the challenge, and during voting I thought this was a very strong image and was really well done.
