i like the plastic bag as a reminder of how we are careless with the most precious thing we have here - our planet. it is simplicity as a contradiction that we allow garbage into our space so that we can't have a simply perfect scene.

Very beautiful image. The simplicity of the patterns and the overall shading from deep blue to the reflection of the sky really makes it.

Excellent light, good composition. Shame about the compression artifacts and the light falloff at the bottom.

lol @ John... sorry!
After reading your comment about wanting to keep the bag in, it doesn't bother me as much... but next time, bring your hipwaders and rip it off yourself! *grin*

A VERY SINCERE thanks for all your comments. I'm going back to the drawing board... Oh, I also remember another reason I didn't clone out the bag - this is one of very few shots that is right out of the camera. 99% of my shots can be made slightly better with a little processing so I didn't want to ruin this one. All I have done is resize and sharpen (apparently a bit too much :-) ). I'll repost again this weekend! Thanks again!

Thanks for pointing out the bag Kim. Thanks a lot.
I was just sitting here really enjoying this scene, but now... well... it's all about the damn bag now, isn't it?
And Jim, this photo is super great fantastic and deserves another posting with a little less sharpening next time. Great photo man.

A 4! This image is a 10 as far as I can see. I can't tell if it is a plastic bag, and I don't really care what it is. Just adds mystery! This is one of the best finds and captures I have ever seen, and I am on 4 photo sites like most of you.

A simple and pleasing composition with nice warm colors. The only distraction to me is the oversharpening halos possibly from the upload or compression.

I like this a lot Jim, glad you pulled over and took the few minutes. The reflected light comes just low enough to frame the dock posts. Nicely done.

Great photo (and a nice backstory too). I agree with taking out the bag. It's not a huge distraction, but I think the theme of simplicity and sparseness begs for clean, uninterrupted lines.
Are these remnants of an old dock? They look wonderful, and make for a pleasant mini-abstract inside a beautiful nature scene. Well spotted (especially for having been up all night)!
Were any filters used?

This one really shows off the merits of simplicity in composition. The strength of the colors by themselves could make this a compelling image, but the simple geometry in the central part of the frame really make this a fantastic piece of work.

Thanks Jay, yeah, I couldn't understand the 4 either. It would have been nice to know why....
And thanks Kim. I've been too lazy to clone out the bag. I wanted to wade out and yank it off! I'm also not super proficient at cloning out things that require a lot of detail. I'll work on it. Thanks for the push.

The only thing that I would change would be to clone out the plastic bag hanging off the wood... but other than that, I think this image is wonderful. Peaceful, full of bold colour and framed beautifully. (8)

Someone gave this a 4. Does that make sense? I agree that this is a calming image. It has an odd, but nice balance to it. J.
