I really pushed the individual channels hard to get the effect. Glad you like it. :) ~ Lonnit

Thank you, Melb. I thought the texture of the scene interesting. I cropped off the top b.c. there was one tall, skinny, fir-type tree that completely destroyed the composition. I cropped and then was very satisfied that all that remained was texture. :) Thank you for appreciating my efforts. :) ~ Lonnit

Nice contrast between the reeds so sharp and vertical and those lily pads so round and horizontal and then there is the luminance contrast.

Well spotted and captured Lonnit, this is very clever and interesting composition.
