Thank you for submitting this wonderfully clean image. The symmetry from the reflection, with no other distracting elements, gives us a very strong composition, enhanced by the strong black and white toning. I love the slither of space between the rock and the wing. Congratulations on your top ten placing.
Thank you for submitting this strikingly beautiful image. I love the gently powerful effect of the layers of land merging into the clouds and sky, while the reflections of each in turn merge both into the water. The deep blue colour palette works so well with this effect. I love the very small yellow detail in the centre. Many congratulations on first place!

Thank you for submitting this very pleasing image. The distortion of the shapes and lines within the reflected building contrasts so beautifully with the perfect graphic symmetry of the building you have photographed. I appreciate the care and precision, both creatively and technically, in the image. Congratulations on second place!
Thank you for submitting this beautifully minimal image. It's an impressive image technically, as the exposure and toning works to emphasise the silhouette and the mist. I love the composition, although as the there is so much symmetry in the image already, I would personally love to see a little less space on the left hand side. Congratulations on your top ten placing.

When glass and water are at play, reflections become possible, and add a wonderful new dimension to our images. It might be a mountainous scene reflected in a still lake, or the photographer’s own reflection peering back at them in a shop window. Reflections can be fun, and whereas we often spend time trying to reduce them, maybe they can be worked creatively into your images.

Thank you for submitting this story-rich image. I love the composition, immersing the viewer in the scene and filling the foreground space with reflection. The exposure works beautifully of course to offset the lights, detail and reflections against the darkness of the sky. I love the visual and busyness of the capture, matching the subject. Congratulations.
Thank you for submitting this beautiful image. The detail of the stars and their reflections in the water makes for a striking and balanced composition. I would personally love to see a little more space on the right hand side of the trees, but I love the silhouettes. Congratulations on high commended.
Thank you for submitting this image which is one of my absolute favourites, although not quite hitting the reflections brief as well as others for me. I love the carefully layered composition, especially the almost silhouetted birds over the dark clothed figures. Congratulations on highly commended.
