New Market Pond is a small pond in Piscataway, NJ. Totally surrounded by large trees on both sides, it offers nice views and is a local favorite. The image is SOOC, and I think it has "good bones", but needs some loving attention.

Here is my view. The original had as they say "good bones". It just needed a little TLC to bring out my idea of its potential.
I tried a boat then a swan but the truth is all that would ruin an outstanding picture that Bill let us work on. I did think the sky could be a bit better since some clouds are reflected in the water. I couldn't bring them back so I added a different sky. Had some fun with the colors.
If I had taken this picture it would be no less than a 28 inch wall hanger. Beautiful job Bill.👏

Nice scene and nice job photographing it... Many years ago I used to work in Piscataway at the Colgate Palmolive research center on River Road but for the life of me I can't remember ever seeing market pond so thanks for the opportunity
This is a great image to work with. I wanted to add a little fog to the water.
Very nice image to work with.
