The title of this photograph is Costa Rica Hot Springs. It was taken in Costa Rica at one of their many hot springs in the mountains. I took this picture with my phone and edited it with Photoshop. I brought down the exposure, white, and highlights. Then I brought up the shadows, blacks, and contrast. I was really happy with how this turned out. I like how I could see the minerals that changed the color of the pool. In the original photo, the light reflected off the pool surface and made it hard to see, but when I brought down the exposure, whites, and highlights i could see through the water. The hot springs temperatures all ranged from 96 to 111 degrees Fahrenheit. I liked the 104 pool the best. There were about 10 pools in all, and I got this when I was on a bridge that passes over to the other pools. I'm not really sure how it could be better, but I would love to hear suggestions.

This photo is really amazing! I love the reflection coming out of the water of the hot springs. I really like how the image is colorful but not enough to overdo it. Overall, this is a really great image! KR-HHS
I really like your photo, I love the reflection of the sky shown in the water and the colors look pretty good, the main subject is in soft focus, the photo is balanced and there are a few area that need to be lighter around the top of the image. I would hang this photo on my wall, Keep up the good work!
I really like this picture. The hot springs look really pretty, the water looks nice, etc. The colors are really bright, and everything is really clear. It's clear what the main thing of the picture is. Overall, I like it.
This is a really calming and interesting photo. I love how the natural pools curve through the image. The focus on the water is strong, and the texture of the stone around it adds a lot of depth and character. The colors are very earthy and natural, which gives the photo a peaceful, almost hidden-oasis feeling. I also like the contrast between the smooth water and the rough rocks. C.C - HHS
This photo is really nice.I like how it capture how big the hot springs is I never seen a hot spring like that before I also like how you used the natural light from this photo and used a overhead shot to capture it overall great photo keep up the good work.
This picture is really pretty and I like how you are able to see the whole hot spring. I think the way you edited really help the image a lot with the colors and how the water and trees look. Overall, I don't think I'd edited this any differently. RH-HHS
Amazing photo, I love the color scheme of this picture and I like the overall composition. I think you captured the details and color super well! I like the way you edit it. Once again great photo. -HHS SD$
I love this photo, the exposure looks great, and so does the contrast, id say if you took the photo more towards that nice orange hue sky at like 5:40.

Amazing picture the overall contrasts is good i would say possible in a lighting or sun hitting the water would look good and angle but in general love how good it looks.- HHS HAB
This photo looks awsome. I like the angle that you took the photo. I like the things that make up the photo.I like lighting of the photo, but i also think that you should have darken the picture. RL-HHS
