Looking into my shed window at reflections in the paddock across the road.

What a lovely peaceful image, the blend of purples and blues in the shed are played beautifully off of the grasses, I'm glad you told us it is a reflection because it looks so perfect. I'd crop down from the top and in from the left to remove the areas of high contrast that are adding nothing to the image. Maybe setting a true black and white point would also give more 'punch' to the image

Very lovely photo.. I agree cropping it down would really accent the whole effect.. Great job.

Hi Josie

fantastic shot. i like the crop as it is but i would also crop in abit more to create a diff shot. not too far though, just enough to make the window poss 30-40% of the final size and lose the sign to give the grey wood a frame effect for the window.
Its a little flat for me too, I'd bump up the contrast and saturation somewhat.
The light falling on the field contrasts the shadow feeling of the building very well.
