Morning Alexander,
A strange composition perhaps, but an effective one.
I like the contrast between the golden light on the reflected buildings and the more muted colours of the beach and wheel.
Your letterbox crop also works well here.
It's something a bit different, and all the better for that.

Cheers,
Ben

Hola Alexander:
Comoposición original e interesante. Todos los elementos de la foto se suman para crean una imagen armoniosa y agradable de mirar: la rueda, el reflejo y las marcar del neumático en el suelo.
Es una bonita foto que demuestra tu buen ojo.
Un saludo: Javi

He,he, indeed a strange composition Alexander. I see that you are making some original experiments and I like that. The wheel has a big impact and it seems bigger than its real size, especially in comparison with the image on the reflection. I like the combination of both and the panoramic format works well.

The reflection is beautiful Alexander, and I like it well, but I like more all this image with the light contrast and the wheel in a little out of focus, the composition is very good as the colors, compliments.
Ciao

Hallo Alexander,
In the first second of looking at this picture completely I did not know what′s what. However all became clearly when I looked deeper into the picture. All behind the matter of the puddle in which I diskovered buildings gilded with happening sun. The good photo widely framed, strong.
Heartily I greet,
Jurek

At first I thought this was dirty slushy snow. After reading your note it now makes sense. You have an excellent eye for the unusual and this strange composition works very well. I love the golden reflections in the band of water.

Hi Alex - strange but creative, the sunset reflected on the windows gives an interesting illusion of the lights being on inside the houses

Hi Alexander. A good one of its type! This particular puddle-reflection is enhanced by the at-first-glance unattached wheel and the tyre marks, to create a bizarre effect within the very close vertical cropping. Unusual but captivating.
Regards,
Andrew

Hi Alexander!
This reflection it's absolutely amazing, clear and delicate compared with the rudeness of the wheel.
Beuatiful colors, nice POV and excellent focus.
TFS and best regards,
Rosa
