This is a newly discovered spot for me in the southern Adirondacks of NY. This it holds a lot of promise for the fall colors.
D5000, f/22, 1/15 set, CP, 18 mm, tripod knee deep in water.
Comments appreciated!

Some interesting elements and a fine composition. Should work well when the colours or sweet light happens.

While the greens back there miss a little color and tone variation here, I can really imagine this to be an awesome place in fall. Definitely a wonderful place to walk around and grab some images.

Nice comp Greg. I think you could give the image a little more contrast and color. Beautiful place.

Nice comp, seems a over-sharpened but that's just web stuff. Agreed, when the light and colors are better, hope you are there for it.

Greg,
Definitely a lovely setting, a pleasing comp and a place to definitely return to in the fall.
The exposure is nice as well and while I wouldn't call the light harsh, it's the frontal lighting on the background trees and vegetation that have made it go flat with little contrast. Sometimes it's not about what or how much light, but the direction. Really no much to be done here except to consider the possibilities of different times and seasons if you get the opportunity.

I like the scene, but feels a bit overexposed. A bit of underexposure would saturate the colors a bit more.

Yes, there is a lot of potential here. This is nice, and really technically good, but it needs some nicer light. I think if you get that coupled with some fall colors, WOW!
