Rebecca G- "Reflection"

The title of this image is “Reflection.” I took it in a birdbath in my backyard and it was taken with my Nikon camera. To edit it, I made the image black and white, then filled in the color of the leaf, boosted the color and adjusted the hue and saturation. I wish that the leaf was a little more in focus.

This is a really cool picture! I love the accent of the red color and how the water almost looks fake.I agree I wish you had focused it more, but it is still awesome editing. I also love the angle of the leaf. Great Job!

I love it! I love how you kept the water colorless and let the leaf be the main subject. I also like how the leaf looks as if it is indenting the water. I like the focus the way it is, but overall the photo is great!

This is a great photo, and the way you made it black and white then added the color to the leaf back. Great job editing the photo overall.

I really like the way that this picture is black and white around the leaf in the middle. The ripples look good i the water around the leaf and I like how it is centered. Really cool picture!

This image is amazing! I love how vibrant the colors are in the leaf and the still water around it. The leaf is so detailed it adds to the picture as a whole. Great Job!

This is a great picture! I like how you colored in the leaf and left the rest black and white. I also like how it looks sitting on the water.

I absolutely L.O.V.E this picture!! The vibrant color of the leaf was a really good idea, espically because the background is black and white. The way the color has the ability to play with your mind makes the picture very fun for me to look at. Overall you did an amazing job on this image.

I love how the leaf is reflected in the water! i love the saturation of the red and how all the focus is on the leaf itself as opposed to the back ground. Fabulous job!

This is a very unique image, I really love the contrast in the color of the leaf compared to the water. The leaf almost looks 3D because it's water repellant, and it sticks out of the water. I really like how still the water is, and I also like the high definition of the photo. Having a clear photo can make a picture look so much better!! I definitely love your creativity for this picture, Good job!!!!

I love this shot, Rebecca! I love the vibrance of the leaf and the centering of the shot. The center line of the leaf following the center line of the shot really holds the leaf in the viewer's eye. Also having the background black and white really softens the background and acts as a good contrast to the sharper leaf. Across the board this is an amazing shot!

This photo is great! I love how the reflections on the water behind the leaf are blurry but the leaf is more in focus. I love how you you left the water black and white and made the leaf red. I like this photo a lot!!

This is a very nice photo! I like how you made the surroundings of the leaf be black and white. It really adds a nice effect to the leaf, as well as add focus to it. Even though the reflection isnt very prominent, i really like this photo!

This photo is really great. I love how the the leaf is colored while everything else is black and white. It makes you focus on the leaf and just the leaf. The boost made the leaf look really intense. This is a great photo very good job.

Awesome photo. I like how simple it is. It's really cool how just a leaf in some water can have such a cool look to it. The color saturation in the leaf compared the the black and white is awesome. The detail in the leaf is also really good.

I really like this picture! I like that the leaf is the only thing that's colored in the picture. The way the leaf is affecting the water in the birdbath makes it look really cool. It is really sharp and draws a lot of attention, Good Job!

I like this photo because of the single leaf in it, and how it has a ripple in the water and the overall color brightness of it.

I like this photograph a lot. First of all I like the ripples in the water. The ripples really make the photo a snapshot in time. Secondly boosting the color in the leaf was great. I do agree the only thing I would change would to get the leaf in focus a little more. Overall it is a very good photo and looks like a professional photograph.

I like this image, the contrast that the red leaf has on the water adds character to the image. The water being pushed in by the leaf is very cool as well. Overall the photo has a sad mood with a glimpse of hope, very well done!

This is an awesome shot! The focus on the leaf is excellent! The red hues of the leaf are great. I really like this picture because the leaf really stands out against the black and white background.

I love how detailed this photo is. The ripple in the water surrounding the leaf gives it a really nice effect. I think it was a good idea to make the image black and white and then add the color back to the leaf. Good job!
