About the Image(s)

This is the first moisture that we have had for about a month and it was making interesting puddles on my deck.

Some cropping, playing around with Topaz DeNoise, and Luminar AI. Canon 5D III, 105mm, 1/100 sec., ISO 5000, f/4

Excellent. I like the diagonal lines coupled with the circular water drops.

I could feel the wetness of the water and softness of the image well. Reflection, circular water drops, leaves and diagonal lines of the garden flooring lead the best composition. Besides, good lighting you managed. Cheers!   Posted: 11/07/2024 05:04:08

There is so much to like here. Good composition, color, impact. I wish the water and leaves were sharper.   Posted: 11/09/2024 12:24:07

Nice image and good composition. Some blurring in the upper part of the image and the leaves are slightly to light. Certainly get the feeling of wetness. Several white spots could be eliminated.   Posted: 11/15/2024 22:33:48

Very pleasing photo. It makes me want to stop and take look a little farther. Lots of depth in the circular rings of water that brings up the grain of the wood. The yellow touch of leafs. Excellent photo.   Posted: 11/19/2024 23:42:40

This is beautiful. Feels of fall. Love the water circles and that one leaf in the middle keeps everything grounded.   Posted: 11/20/2024 00:03:58

couldn't figure out what it was until I read the description. The colors of the wood and leaves really say "autumn". The overlapping circles are really nice.   Posted: 11/21/2024 13:13:43
