Mike,
The colour and exposure look spot on! I also love the comp but can't help but wish there was some thing in the bottom right to break up the space...not your fault and I think you captured this scene perfectly! I love the greens (that I never seem to capture!).

Speaking of the power of water ... WOW! Mike, thanks for contributing to WC. When I see those logs in the BG, I think of what that water can do when it's unleashed.
I'm not a fan of smooth as silk water, but in this image, it really works and supports the power of the water.

Wonderful picture Mike,
the exposure is spot on. Fortunately the editors picked up this, otherwise I would have miss it. Congratulations on the well deserved EP.

Mike, looking at this one sure brings back some very fond memories from my early days posting at Shutterpoint. Both you and Marc were posting some amazing images from the PNW and I had never seen so much green foliage and moss in all my life at that time. Congratulations on the EP selection in this category for this fine scene.
