You didn't put these the critique section so I'm not really sure if you are looking for a critique. Also, posting more than one at a time makes it a little difficult.

Number 1 is my favourite as it's a clean shot of a lake. I like the way the tree leaves in the upper left frame the shot.

The other two are not quite as interesting to me.

Also, welcome to the forum! I think I missed your intro if you posted one but I see this is only your third post. And a fellow Nova Scotianer to boot! I hope you enjoy your stay.

I like shot 1 best also ...and it's a scene you could take so many times during the year at different times and seasons and get so many different reasons to look at the photos too.

Shot 3 is intriguing ... what the hell is it? What's your Canadian water monster?? Scooby Dooby Doo or something??? It looks like that anyway!! :)

funny, shot #2 is my fav. I think it has lots of potential for different moods depending on the light,sky, and photo-editing techniques.

MA, in Australia you have crocodiles, in Canada we have our own lake monsters :evil2:

:) I wear boardies!

I fount it! Opopogo! I was way off thinking it started with an 'S'

Opopogo is what I thought of when I saw that third photo above. :)

Opopogo ...what a dumbass name. I probably just insulted a native tribe with that crack. :headslap:

I didn't know that!! a quick google showed that there are actually quite a few lake monsters in Canada. List of reported lake monsters - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_reported_lake_monsters) who knew??

I hear you. There are times when our 'adult eyes and minds' can be a hindrance :)
