watercolor

500mm f4.2 1/125s ISO200
I've showcased painting filters and brushed images here in the past.  In this one though I took a more realistic approach.  This is real water color.  These yellow blossoms are reflected atop the slow moving stream.  The big green background of trees is blended softly with an afternoon sky.  The soft ebb flow in this stream offers the organic impressionistic reflections.  Look beyond what is right in front of you.
