6x6 impressionist oil daily landscape painting on canvas panel. The smooth reflection of the tree in the water contrasts with the texture of the tree and brush on the bank of the creek.
I'm looking for critique on this as I'm quite new to compositing and wanting to improve my techniques.
Some kid on the train was making faces at his reflection in the window I think. Either way I was playing with my camera and took a shot of him. Haha

Saw this wonderful bench alongside Lake Shore Drive on the south side. I couldn't have picked a better time to shoot it.
It is not real..but image of the reflection of a landscape in the pristine waters of 'kalindi' river in Thirunelli (Wyanad district, Kerala, India). Set in the idyllic backdrop of Brahmagiri Hills and 'Narinirangi Hills', this beautiful village is adorned with streams, forests and paddy fields. It is famaous for Thirunelli Temple of Vishnu, where people come to wash away their sins with a dip in the mountain spring 'Papanasini'.

Last Sunday I found myself staring in a mirror.
Had been a while since I last saw my own ugly face.
Had been a while since I experienced running hot water and soap.
A zink, a toilet, soap, towels, electricity.
I was in heaven.
Even if not gone for long, things change and look different when you get back.
I was reflecting over good news and bad news.
I had been taken from the past and now dropped back in the future.
Time flies, in many ways and meanings.
This song was on "repeat" in my head on my way back home.
In the chrome of a public bathroom hand dryer at the Krohn's Conservancy. What can I say, I like reflections.

History & Culture
The Portland Classical Chinese Garden began as a dream in the early 1980’s. It became more focused when Portland and Suzhou, China, became sister cities in 1988 and the idea of a building a Suzhou-style garden in Portland became a goal.
History of Scholar’s Gardens
The city of Suzhou is located approximately 50 miles west of Shanghai on the eastern coast of China. It was founded in 525 BC and is one of China’s oldest cities. It has a mild climate, similar to Portland’s. By 1,000 AD, it had become a thriving city with an economy based on trade. It was also a place for government officials to retire. These retiring Imperial court officials built housing compounds that featured beautiful gardens. These gardens attempted to duplicate nature found in traditional Chinese landscape paintings, and the nature of the nearby Yellow Mountains. The gardens would be used to entertain guests and undertake intellectual pursuits such as painting, poetry, and conversation. This Garden is based on a garden built in Suzhou during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 AD).
Construction
The Garden was built on land donated by Northwest Natural who had for 20 years used it as their parking lot. The groundbreaking ceremony was held in July 1999, and construction was completed in September 2000. The majority of the materials used in the construction of the Garden originated in China. Approximately 65 workmen from Suzhou created the structures and completed the work. An American construction company did the site preparation and foundation work. The Garden is in compliance with all current U.S. construction codes, and was completed at a total cost of approximately $12.8 million.
Wish i could go back to this moment and know exactly how to make it a little better. but i love this photo.

In total, there are 475,000 square feet (44,128.9 m2) of office floorspace, most of which was pre-let to the Willis Group, a risk management company and insurance intermediary.
Constructed between 2004 and 2008 under the management of Mace,it was a significant addition to the London skyline, becoming the fourth tallest building in the City after Tower 42, 30 St Mary Axe and CityPoint. The core was topped out in July 2006 and the steelwork was finished in September 2006. Cladding began in July 2006 and the building was externally completed by June 2007. It was internally fitted out and officially opened in April 2008.
51 Lime Street is the first in a wave of new towers planned for the area. These others include the Bishopsgate Tower, 122 Leadenhall Street, Heron Tower, 100 Bishopsgate, 20 Fenchurch Street, Broadgate Tower and the Shard of Glass.
