Fresh

I like this a lot Helmut,
beautiful scene,
well captured and excellent processing.
Perfect SS for water and great comp.
I have no suggestions for it.
Nicely done.

This is lovely. I agree that your ss choice is great and there's good eye movement front to back. I alos like the combination of turquoise water and green foliage. I do find myself wondering if you could have taken one or two steps to the right to avoid clipping that turquoise area in the stream that's on the right edge just below the middle.

Great work for me, Helmut. The foreground and distant elements complement each other in a most appealing way.

This is really nice, Helmut. What a beautiful place and you captured it so well. I like your choice of shutter speed for the water motion and the larger version shows some nice details too.

The soft water texture in the background has a wonderfully refreshing feel, and I really like both the texture and the color of the foreground water. You've done a great job controlling the tones here, and the result is a very natural image. No nits from me.

Helmut,

This is lovely. How about them Luminosity masks?!! Excellent job with the blend and processing in general. Great color/sat and good job retaining texture in the water.

While I like this as presented and of course I wasn't there, but this feels like it could use some more room on the right and not be so narrow (ok, so I'm biased on format, what can I say.) I only mention cause near mid frame the water is heading out of the frame and I'm wishing I could kinda see more of the return - hence the wider view. But of course I know with any format, we have fixed ratios along with the focal lengths and can't always get everything we need. This is still a strong comp and a beautiful image.

Absolutely gorgeous!
