New Creek up near Sandy

Well as crazy as it seems in this weather I ventured out again this morning and did the whole ring around the mountain trip and although the overhanging leaves were gone....I found new creeks that have formed since last week....with a plethora of leaves on the ground around the water...

the moss is really bright right now!!!

Dang....is it that bad....45 views and no comments....guess I need to turn the rally cap back and get the drawing board back out!

I look the mood of this image and the wetness you can really feel. I hints if autumn are there but you no there going away

It's okay Darren, except the BG bugs me in comparison to the look of the stream and mossy rocks. I like the look of the stream making a bend and coming right at me. I like it even better if I scroll it to crop it almost in half. But I know you do lots of wide angle, and that's not so much how I shoot. Many others of yours have more of a WOW factor. So, see, now you really have to put out!

This is nice but I kind of agree with Catherine on the crop. If you lose it just above the water line, you pay a lot more attention to everything in the water and the background is not there asking for my attention. The water part is really nice

Nice water shot. I used the screen to crop this in several ways. I like best just with a simple crop just above the bank of ferns and then edit out the tree. I like this better than just a water shot going form the lower left to the upper right -= all just my opinion.

Darren,
The banks seem a little cluttered with bare branches and twigs. The exposure and the leaves look good.

alright thanks......guess I could not spend all day removing branches and leaves to "clean" it up......hopefully the one I posted in ESS will get better reviews!!!! a slightly different angle
