I was intrigued with the play of the dark pines against the red foliage, light grey rocks, and the dried aged trees, all reflected beautifully on the water.

This technically excellent image uses complementary colors to effectively evoke the spirit of the class title.

The trees on the right edge compete with main focal point by drawing the eye out of the frame.

The water lily punctures dark waters with vibrant color and an ethereal translucence that offer the passer-by a moment of quiet repose.

Effective tranquility is successfully achieved through horizontal format and soft background.

The scale of leaf in the foreground detracts.
