Great shot and editing. Shoulda been bigger or I shoulda been smaller. Good work!

Hmmm... I am not criticizing, merely asking, is the light considered dappled here? It's a great shot, excellent exposure, just not what I would have thought of to fit a dappled light shot.

This is really beautiful, very much like a painting. I'm not sure it's dappled light, but still an 8 for the view and benefit of a doubt.

This is a fine image, but not what I would consider dappled light.

This was probably beautiful in real life, but sunsets are hard to process -- especially in Basic Editing. This seems muddy, possibly because of hand shake (did you use a tripod?). Also, it's not the best example of dappled light. Still, the colors are beautiful, and it is well composed.

I'm having problems seeing the dappled light here. I know what you were seeing because I've experienced it myself. I just think the camera/lens didn't pick up on it. Very nice shot of this calm lake though, serene and relaxing.

Nice light but not really dappled in my opinion.

Wow...what a wonderful shot. It really does look like a painting and the colors are beautiful. This is certainly one to hang on your wall...right after you get your ribbon. :-)

Great colour and the reflection is beautiful. Doesn't really say 'dappled light' to me though.

Beautiful (though not particulary original), but I wouldn't call this dappled light.

This is not dappled light in my opinion - dappled light is light shining through several small apertures, functioning as pinhole cameras, creating circular images on the ground. Sorry, did not vote on this one.
