Well..I was hoping to still find some flow in Smith Creek this past Saturday. I believe there was just enough to make the trip worthwhile. It was cool, the light was sweet, and there was just a bit of a breeze. By the time I was half way home in the second hour of the four hour drive the temp was close to 90 and the wind had picked up quite a bit. Just imagine how good that cool water felt on my feet and legs...even if it was only 60 degrees at the time.
Wow, this looks so much better and cleaner on my monitor and on my IPhone. Maybe I shouyld have sharpened this particular shot for the Web a couple more times. I did it twice in my initial processing and it looks great on Facebook and the phones....suggestions folks?
This is a 'moody' photo with lots of darks and splashes of contrasting whites. The water is NOT overdone. I think some shots of water make it look like milk. Wide angle lens provided great DOF. The stream itself, along with the whites, makes a leading line through the photo. The texture of the rocks near and far with highlights contained thereon, also provide much to the photo.
Nice.

Looks like it was a good day to be in the woods.
You are right that the image does have a strange look to it. Almost like the trees are a double image that does not register the two right. Was it a blended exposure?
