Phi, thanks for uploading an updated version :)
It's a great looking shot and I for one would be saddened to see it gone from this challenge gallery.
Didn't mean to offend you in any manner.

Beautifully calm water Phi75, and nice composition!

Here's the link to the rules and there really aren't very many. The "Eligible" gallery is for images taken within the challenge dates with a Canon camera and this "Exhibition" gallery is for those taken at any time with any camera. In the "Eligible" gallery you must list your camera and the date taken. It is not required to have all the Exif info but it's always nice for those who want to see it. The rest of the rules are here:

Good to have you join the challenges and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work! :-) CJ

what don't you say anything to people who don't show exif?????
2 rules, ......?
I don't care to be good or bad photographer, when my work is not clean enough I don't show , if you are not a straight judge for yourself , how can you criticize others!
Concerning the date, I didn't know, a little message will have been more "delicate" ......You want to show us that you are so well educated, so, teach us, or better me!!!!
Sorry for the mess on the site.
If somebody, can tell me where are the rules for posting?? I already asked, nobody answered me

I am really sorry I mentioned anything about the time. I will not point these kind of things out to anyone anymore. I'll let the host or someone else do the dirty work. I just did it now before it is too late for you to post a replacement. It won't happen again from me.

I appologize. You are correct that I am not a good photographer. I am really bad and way out of league and should leave this to the folks like yourself. You do take execelent pictures.

Thank you again for your really nice compliment... !!!!

Troy you have better eyes for reading the date on my photo than for taking picture........................!!!! : )
ctfchallenge26-Jun-2007 17:12
I noticed that some of you don't put their images with exif, it's also a solution......!
Anyway, if you don't want my photos on your site just remove them.
What else to say.....

Also, the date this was taken sits outside the challenge dates, even with keeping the time zone in mind. Might want to double check the camera's date/time. Would most likely have to move the piccy to exhibition.

p.s. This shot also sits at 168,228. Please resize and/or recompress to keep it under 150KB(153,600 bytes) Thanks!

Notice will be removed upon after checking in again later ;)

Really like this take on the theme. I could myself imagine how a ripple would ruin this prestine reflection, so I do like that the mirrored image in the water is almost perfect. Shot also has excellent clarity , color and contrast.

Good eye, Troy. Sure enough, the date shown isn't within the Challenge period. What's up, Phil? It might be a good idea to confirm the time shot, Phil. Nice pic, BTW. Cheers, -mikey

If anyone is splitting hairs on timestamp......?

I love tossing stones at a delicate surface like this and take pictures of the splash and ripples. Very tempting site. Oh, nice shot too. -tv

Very nicely done Phil, it has a really nice look to it.

Hi COAmature,
look on right side just over the two round trees in the water.....

I wonder if you could have an assistant skip a rock gently across this beautiful setting to show us how delicate the waters surface is? -COAmature
