Comment from Glena Jessee-King
This is a beautiful abstract of the surface of a pond. The swirls, circles, and other shapes in blacks, whites, and blues are moving figuratively as well as concretely. Fine work. Best wishes in the contest.

Comment from Celyn1
I do like this picture for its simplicity mainly. The water almost looks like molten metal in places with the reflections. It is difficult to see whether or not the picture is in focus but it certainly looks it at the front - maybe the rear of the picture is a bit out of focus but my eyes aren't up to discerning that I'm afraid. It is an unusual shot which seems to have worked well so good luck with it

A good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine and full composition offers us an enjoyable view of a lovely shimmering water surface. Exposure and sharpness are good. Well done and good luck!

This is a great entry for this competition! The thumbnail doesn't do it justice, but when you see it full size it just jumps out of the page!
The whole image is beautifully sharp and the tones in the light playing on the water are superb.
I really like that it's just the three colours - ha ha like a B&W photo with extra bits!
Best wishes for the contest.
Charlotte

This is a fine piece of nature photography. This shows how we can find beauty even in mundane things that we otherwise ignore. The entire composition, colours, and light make this interesting.Good luck!

A very interesting and creative entry into the contest. Love the light on the water creating the silver and blue hues.
Nicely captured with good composition.

Comment from Ray Gordon
This is a fine example of just how much black comprises the color of the water feature and the equal amount of white and blue. Very nicely captured. The best of luck in the contest. Ray

Nice photograph of the water with ripples as the sun shines on the surface.
Great simple colors but so visually pleasing for this full screen abstract presentation.
Good luck in the voting.

This is interesting and creative. I am not familiar with this technique by choice but sometimes my photos look abstract and not intentionally LOL This is fun. Good colors. Nicely balanced. Good luck in the contest!

Thank you very much, I just really liked the patterns the wind was creating on the surface of the pond!

You are so very welcome!

Comment from ArtisticChick
Water and clouds can provide endless mystique and beauty. And of course photo opportunities. Thus is nicely done. Each ripple rimmed with white ribbons of light and the water as a whole is showing blue reflection from the sky. Very cool. Very sharp.
