    I'm really not sure whether the technical flaws in all of these detract too much from the "dynamic optical phenomena" I was trying to capture here, because I am just too intrigued at the moment with the visual potential here. I'll certainly be shooting more like this in the future, and would welcome your comments on what technical and creative parts of these work, and which are problematic (both at the camera and in photoshop). And, for now, maybe help me pick one most viable entry to this challenge.

    Wow...I really like the first one! To me it looks like I am peering into another world through a hole!

    Thank You!

    Yes, through the hole in my lens :D by a small perennial stream in an Oregon Oak - Coast Live Oak woodland, my local park just west of town.

    The first two seem really surreal...Like I'm not looking at water. Very cool.
