The stream
This one just jumped right out to me. We were so fortunate to have wonderful raging water, but little wind affecting the tree lined banks. By far this was probably my most productive day in several months. Thanks for your comments.

Yes, productive...I agree. It was a nice day(s) and we really did well with our decisions. We went where the weather worked best for the types of shots we wanted.
This is sweet Ned. That water color is beautiful...and very exact.

Ok, ok, I lurked and didn't comment and I can't think of why not since it is an extremely good shot, Ned. I agree with the others - print it big! Sorry...

The color of the water is great Ned! I like the composition you chose as well.

Oh man I like this!!! For a 5 second exposure that water looks simply awesome!! (I'm more of a short exposure guy for water) Excellent cyan tones in there that contrasts very well with the green foilage.

Nits? There's one rock on the right edge halfway down that if life were "perfect" wouldn't be there. But when is nature that compliant eh?

Well done Ned!!

Thanks for the comments. I really like this area here, and will probably return in the not too distant future to work it more... :biggrin:
