Cool mountain stream

Rod,

I really like it, very clear, and well composed, good shot. -- Gene A.

What I liked...

The feel. It reminds me of a dozen different streams I've been to in the mountains. That's a good thing.

Lighting is good. You've picked up a good range of grays. The shadows aren't all stopped up and the highlights aren't burned out. Very nice balance between the two.

The water looks like it's frozen. That works nicely. And the balance between the light and dark areas. I especially like the dark background.

What I didn't like...

For this type of photo I think having the rocks in the near background in sharper focus would have made a stronger impact. Bluring the distant background was fine because there's nothing there to see but the near background rocks are part of the subject.

That's it. Nice shot Rod.
