Many thanks for all your kind comments. Regarding the border, it looks like an overkill indeed. Cheers,

Intriguing... that ripple is quite perfectly placed, definitely a moment worth catching.

For me, your photo is a 10. The border you have chosen is not very pleasing to me. I'll take off one point: 9

I feel like this kind of abstract image would be better without the frame.

I love reflections, and this is very nice. The border I'm not such a fan of, I'm unsure if it's the colors picked for the border or just the border though.

frame detracts, image is kinda cool otherwise as the reflection fits right into the waterside grasses

I love the image but really feel that border detracts immensely. Either no framing or a simple black would work better. The yellow makes our eye pull outward away from the beautiful reflection. Windmills are the best. I hope that is a helpful comment. :~)

I want to like this, I really do. That ripple in the reflection is really cool. The border is holding me back from getting in the photo. I normally am impartial to borders, but this one really is distracting.
