I think that there is too much contrast (shadows area are very black) and saturation (grass green is too green) in your pic (and maybe add a better title too your thread :p)

nice! it very much looks like a...pond?
The ripples should be smaller and the green could be a little less bright. But otherways it looks quite good.

I'd add a duck.

the ripples are pretty linear, but I ilke the color saturation, like an exageration of real life.

I don't like the camera angle...

Other than that, it's a very nice piece...It's subtle and you created a nice mood overall..

I agree about the duck, it'd be a nice touch...Either way, impressive stuff..
ruM's OUT...

I know what some of you guys said about the saturation of the image but I did it like that on purpose. I am not trying to go photoreal but to create a nice mood and I thing that with a little bit of saturation I can pull it off. Thekkur, the idea of adding a duck is great but I dont have the time to do it now, maybe later.

you know sorry bud but i have to agree the saturation is too much. It just makes everything look plastic. Its a cool shot, and very peaceful, but so...colorful. Its one thing to have some saturated colors, but when everything is like that, it just all blends together and you have no focal point. Also the further back those trees are the less crisp/detailed they should be. The atmosphere would cause them to dull out to a more greyish/blue color. Its a slight difference, but it will add more depth to your image.
