I took several photographs of this small bridge near Lock 22-23 of the Delaware Canal. I thought the reflections in this one were particularly interesting. Thanks to Froober for the editing lesson!

Fits The Challenge-Yes
Composition- See below
Background- Busy
My Opinion- I'm not too sure about this shot and during the challenge rated it a 7 for the same reason. Let me try to explain: I like it, it does look like a painting and technically I think it's good. The trouble area is the white to right-makes my eye fly there. Then I have trouble finding my bearings..it's a busy shot. I think if the horizon/sky/or bank had been visable it would of helped this shot. Just MHO.
Made me think for a second :-) Interesting use of reflection to protray the bridge. I think it is very creative and nice colours, but it is hard to look at for long periods of time since there is no clear definition of a subject. If the water was dead still I think this would have been great! Points for creativity!
Interesting photo - a reflection in the water flipped upside down. A little more clarity would be better, but I'm sure you had no control over the smoothness of the water. Colours are nice.
That's just so cool I can't believe it!! Love this one.. did you really crank on the Red saturation to make the red reflection stand out like that? Love it. 9.
Pretty unusual The first thing I noticed are the very nice colors. Then I wondered if you manipulated this in some way to give it the streaking effects. If so, I would like to see the photo without the streaking.
You took a bold gamble on this shot as to how the votes would go. It is a very interesting shot. Beautiful colors and a sharp focus for the blur. I`m not sure what I am looking at ( a reflection?) or how you did this (filters?). Hhmmm I will learn something this week from this shot... -Clicker-
