The composition and exposure are right on; the colors are stunning and it tweaks at the primordial fear
of what really lurks beneath that placid surface.

Yeah, that first #16 was confusing - I was looking at it for a long time to find the water... The recent #16 is great though, maybe I'd voted for that one if it had been up when I voted.

I voted #9. Even if it's a bit blurred I like the colors and how the boy looks totally absorbed by those big fishes.

Glad to see my topic sparked so many great entries. I'm going with #12. I really like the reflection of the pier and just the mood of the photo in general.
