Thanks Stephen - appreciate the time you have taken to reply. I understand what you are saying about the top tone not having unformity. I can fix this so thanks. What you said about the position of the top leaves, though I see what you are getting at, without falling into the pond, there was nothing I could do to move it. The white halo is too hard to remove with my limited photoshop skills but I think it is less prominent in the original. It is where the low lying sun catches where the leaves dip into the water. Not sure I understand what you are saying about the colour of the leaves..I didn't do much to them so can't really comment. Im also not understanding what you mean about the unatural angle of the leaf....It was floating along like that.

I'm surprised you introduced Magritte when discussing my leaf butI m flattered that my image brought him to your mind.. I really love his images and studied them a lot during my recent Photography college curse.

Thanks again Stephen. Would have liked to see some of your images but none on your gallery. Do you have a link to some to give me?

Cheers.
