Puddle, Petals, and Leaf

I like it, but feel free to ask, "why did you post this crappy shot?" Because.
I like it, too. What a cool find and great reflections.

I like it as well.. I love the reflection in the puddle... Great POV..

Wow, so beautiful! The petals remind me of Easter eggs! LOL!
March 30th, 2014  
It's great! love the reflection and pov...the petals are a almost like stars in the sky
March 30th, 2014  
Bahaha! I love it! I have one that is very similar (minus the petals obviously) from this past month!

Like it, it could be outside a church after a wedding with all the discarded confetti.

I don't at all agree it is crappy!

Here's why I think it works: great textures, good tones the blend or align with one another, and that one orange leaf that pops takes it to a different level.
March 30th, 2014  
Crappy? No way! I like the reflections, scattered color, and texture. The orange leaf works too, but I would have liked it in the foreground right of the puddle instead of centered. NOT crappy...
March 30th, 2014  
@rvwalker That is exactly the problem! I had a wide-angle, and I could not get what I wanted without going for that leaf in the center. Another lens may have helped. Thanks Ross. :)

@darylo I'm sure some gallant gentleman would have moved the leaf for you, Daryl. I would have, for a piece of pie or something.

Beautiful capture! ;)

The petals really add to this. And that bit of blue there is intense! I did a puddle today too!
March 30th, 2014  
I like it tooTaffy has it spot on for reasons why.
March 30th, 2014  
Very blue and magical feel. Perhaps you could enter it in the 'magical' theme?
March 30th, 2014  
Fantastic shot, love it
March 30th, 2014  
Not crappy at all! Love the delicate petals, the toughness of the leaf that hung around since fall, and the hope that a hint of blue sky brings.
March 30th, 2014  
Love it! Not your everyday shot.
March 30th, 2014  
Beautiful shot and lovely reflection
March 30th, 2014  
Lovely reflection!
March 30th, 2014  
So you were wrong! the consensus is it is NOT crappy! I briefly saw it last night on the feed and thought how beautiful it was! I tried one yesterday and it wasn't nearly as beautiful! I wonder how it would have looked inverted.. Oh yeah FAV
@rvwalker Hahaha! Pie is a cheap payment for leaf or photo manipulation! I'll keep that in mind! ;~}
March 30th, 2014  
'Because' is good enough... and it's a great shot!
March 30th, 2014  
This is just absolutely wonderful. Fav

@rvwalker we made apple pie just this week! :)

I certainly won't be asking you that, because I think it works very well, I love the composition and I love that large leaf too! fav
