Well this maybe way out there for some of you, but since I like to paint this is about as close as I have come to doing it without paint. I flip and cropped this down some. Then just added layers and painted in my own colors. The leaves at the bottom, I was trying to make them look like flowers and did some rough cloning to make some of the trees to look like pine trees. This is all reflection is a small pool of water. I would like some ideas on a title may make print of this one.

As someone else has already said this takes after the impressionists so maybe an obvious title like Impressions of Spring or Impressions of Color or something along those lines. I do like the composition and texture you achieved.

Love the technique, textures and colors. this is really very beautiful. The only thing that really doesnt work for me is the border. I think it distracts from the overall composition. But that is only a personal opinion.

I LOVE it! Has a very impressionist feel to it, as for title...Fall Dream? just a thought...or Water Colors?

I am not a post-processing fan, chiefly because I can do very little. So far. But this is a lovely composition, and I appreciate LG's pointing out the way out. (Not sure about the framing which for me interrupts the artwork).

I really like this. The textures and comp are great. I like the white at the top. There is a philosophy of photos that says that there should be "some way out of the photo". (don't remember where I read this). Usually, this means there is a dark area, tree trunk or something that lets the eye out of the frame. In this photo, the white lets the eye out of the frame and i think it works very well. Usually, a white spot leading out would not be considered "good" I think, but this one works for me.

Only nit for me is the color pink. Just me. I like the color contrasts and can't think of an alternative. Maybe if it were more purple, but I'm not sure. At any rate, nice creation. LG
