Pretty cool Ned. I might do something about that bright stick just above the big rock in the middle of the stream though.

Love that splat look. I'd also lose that twig. I like the way you lined everything up, I know it wasn't by mistake.
Still, I dont know if this is different enough fromthe rest of your water shots to print and include in your portfolio.

Well, I have a feeling Anna will dig it...

I like the lower perspective and feel of the water coming right at me. This looks like the cold creek area. Is it?

Great job Ned. Where in the world do you find these places?

Ned, I like it and would love to have shot it. However, I don't think it is as strong as other work. I hope to get together with you and others again sometime.

Thanks for the comments.. I love that area... and took several shots to get the wispy white streaks just right within the pool. This is down on the Upper Umqua River near Diamond Lake.

I don't think this is your best one, Ned. It seems to me that the photo is all about the "splat" (Rick's term) and not about the magic of rivers and streams in the NW that you do so well.
