Definitely not SOOC - Shapes and Colours #4

With shadows and reflections on the dam. The growth on top of the water is a small native floating plant which the ducks like to eat.

Super interesting

Really interesting image. I like the monochrome and the pattern of the azolla(?) and the tree. The geometry of the solar panels is a nice contrast.

[Oli Lindenskov]

@rensala Hi Renee. This is a huge edit. It was quite vibrant with blues and dark reds in the original. But I've got lots of images of this dam so I wanted something different - with more emphasis on the shapes rather than the colours. I'm afraid I can't remember exactly what I did - but I know it had quite a lot of steps! Cheers Rob

@ankers70 Thanks Suzanne . I was trying to think of the name of the water weed!! It's covering our dams at the moment - so it's nice to know it's a native. Cheers Rob

Thank you all so much for your feedback on this edit. This was originally highly coloured with blue sky and dark red plant growth on the surface. The colours really distracted from the shapes. Hence this very muted result. It was very helpful to read all of your kind comments. Cheers Rob

@rickster549 Hi Rick - they are solar panels. Part of our block used to be used to grow assorted crops. These dams were part of the irrigation system. This area has large underground aquifers and there is a bore on our property - just beside this dam. The bore is quite expensive to run so the solar panels were installed to offset the cost. They feed back into the grid. When the original owner first put them in he was being paid 44c/KWhr for his feed in. Unfortunately we now get 8c/KWhr.. :( Cheers Rob
