I'm really enjoying this one.I won't say it looks soft (unsharp), but I like the soft/calm look this has. The motion in the water fits this scene perfectly, IMO. I also like the colorful speckles of leaves on the rocks going way into the background.
A small bit of me would like to see more to the left?
This is one of those photos I would love to see and admire in person... TFS!

Great fall scene. Love the zig-zag journey to the background colors. Nice water capture.

Sure is a beautiful shot Phillip. Great comp with the meandering flow through the image. The colorful leaves also add a lot to this one for me. The dreamy blur is nice, but perhaps a tad too strong for my taste because it tends to give the image a sleepy feel.

Beautiful fall scene. Wonderful, but not overpowering color.

Beautiful. A really wonderful fall scene very well composed, Phillip. The light and color are very pleasing to look at. I like the glowing feel in the background leaves too. Very nice work!

Such a nice stream. I sure like how it meanders down through the frame..

Classic shot of the smokies. I'm a fan of a little more texture to the water, faster shutter speed, but either way this gives me a warm fuzzy feel. Other than the water detail, not much to suggest.

Love your composition, the wonderful greens of the moss, and of course that incredible autumn color. Gorgeous image.

Phillip,
Beautiful autumn stream image from the Smokies. Has a bit of a glow look to it, but if not, this is still processed wonderfully.

Thanks for the comments, everyone! I was playing around with Orton techniques and thought this one looked good with a slight "dreamy" feel to it. The web isn't doing this shot any favors! On my big calibrated display, it really glows!

Beautiful fall scenery, the slight orton effect is a nice touch here.
