I like how the rushing water in the FG comes out in all directions and yet you can see detail still underneath. The placement of the bridge adds visual tension to the image

I like the concept and processing here. The bridge leads my eye out of the frame, however

I agree that the water motion is great but that the bridge falls off the left side a bit.

Darren, really like the color and processing. To me it seems to lack a central subject. :jump:

Darren, My girlfriend and I both agree that if you crop just a hair above the bridge that it removes the bridge issue mentioned above. But you also lose that cascade that you tucked into the UL corner. Either way, it is an attractive image. The color is superb! But I think it is a stronger composition with a crop.
