Hello Isabela,
I like your play with the reflections very much. The colours of your shot are nicely saturated, the light is fine, as is the composition. Overall, the image looks like an impressionist painting. TFS and have a nice day, Dasha

Hello Isabela

A very charming capture, that owes a lot to the dry leaves of the weeping willow that have fallen into the water, and give some depth perception. I am torn on the reflection itself. I am not convinced that the lower part brings enough interest, despite the luminous green that brightens the general hues. So, pardon me but I made a WS that erases the bus and the tourists, lol!
