This is a huge reflective sphere in Bristol. I thought it would be good, instead of just photoing the sphere, to photo the sphere reflected in water, to make a double reflection.

Great subject - a little too dark overall for me. I wonder if a tighter crop might also add to the abstract feel? If that's what you were aiming for, of course. :) Kavey
a little bit too dark for my tastes - could do with a stop more exposure or so to bring out the water/ refectlions more ? But would totally blow out the sky - a hard one to get balanced
I like the reflection within a reflection idea. I think it would have been stronger though if you had filled the frame with more of the orb, or if the colors were a little more bold. karmat
this is a really neat concept, and technically you have done well, I think. I think it may have been more interesting, for me, though, if you had not tried to include quite so much in the picture. Maybe getting closer to the sphere, etc.? karmat
Really tough lighting. I wonder if a different time of day might help. Most of the pic seems a little underexposed, but you have that bright area that would be even more blown out if you exposed more so I dunno what to tell ya. I like the composition and angle. The subject is also nice. Nice lines. ~indigo997
The reflections are very dark. I guess this couldn't be helped though if it was a dark day. Maybe some software post processing could have brightened it up a little.
