Another Evening in Robbins

Well I did go back to Robbins to see how the May 29th photo "Quiet Evening" would look with the rice starting to grow above the water.  I was surprised to find the light so different.  I thought I'd post this one for comparison.  It's amazing how different the light is from day to day, and of course from hour to hour.  I was thinking that the blue cast in the water is actually the light reflecting from the opposite direction, which would be blue sky.  I see this sometimes with water bird photos.  Originally I like the monochrome version from the 29th better, but this one is growing on me. One issue I have with it is that you can see the building in the background.  I did a better job hiding those buildings on the 29th.

Beautiful reflections. A picture very "pictorialist".
Greetings.
