red carpet in the nature

Would perfer walk here than the red carpet

Wish I got good foucs in bottom left corner and little more space at bottom. I realized about space while composing the image but I was carrying only 17-40mm; I probably need to buy 24-85mm lense as well.

thanks for suggestions and comments...

Beautiful, Swamy. I like the deep blues and the variety of colors in the BG.

I like the tonal contrasts here between the cool and warm tones. Compositionally I like the diagonal across the creek in the foreground which really sets a feeling of depth. On my monitor the blues in the water look a tad bit strong

You did great with this - I think the space on the bottom is fine. I agree about the blue on the water being a bit too strong, but it's not bad at all.

Very pretty BG colors and nice comp. I do think the blues are unnaturally heavy though.

Great capture Swamy! I like the color of the water against the foliage and the flow SS is just perfect. The bottom left looks fine to me. if it's out of focus the blur of the water hides it well. I would like to see a bit more definition in the canyon wall on the upper left, but it's very minor flaw in my eye. Nice job!

Very nice, Swamy. 17-40 seems to work very well here, IMO. I like the strong foreground that you created with it.

I love the color here in this dramatic scene Swamy.
