Very nice! It is amazing the completely different feel that each version has (this one and the rotated one). In this version I really like the fact that the stone walkway is so sharp..it gives it a since of stability. Really wonderful composition.
I like it rotated because the shadow on what now would seem to be a stone wall realy makes you wonder what is going on in this image. I love reflective images like this. Great tone work and composition IMO. Thanks!
My first thought was to straighten the house but on reflection (pun intended) I prefer it as is. The rotated version seem to add another eery dimention (wonder what it would look like if you flipped the rotate version vertically then added it to this?)
really neat composition. well exposed, and well framed. I think I prefer the upside down version, though - it plays tricks on my mind and makes things more interesting.
Del - I am so happy to see you are participating in this. I love the finished look of this one. Your eye is so good at picking up on the beauty of New England and providing it such a high level of quiet dignity. I will be taking lessons from you all year long in this challenge...
Wow! Now THAT is a mirror reflection. It seriously looks like you rotated the photo upside down. I love photos like this that have fun with interesting angles and perspectives. I love the different textures, from the brick to the trees, to the trees. VERY nice ! ! !
