One of my favourite spots again,thought it would look good

converted to monochrome in Nik silver efex pro.

It's a wonderful composition -- so many diverse elements together in a single frame.  The detail you've captured is striking, and I'm wondering if you blended two photos with different points of focus.  I also wonder if slightly whiter/brighter water in the foreground would be appropriate or if it could be achieved in a natural way without becoming "unbalanced."

Good, would look good?! No, it doesn't look good, it looks divine! I don't know what makes that, ND, CPL, Nik silver efex pro...?! I only know I haven't so far seen such a good picture! Seven all the way, of course!

Best regards Douglas!

Douglas, I could look at this for a long time. It is excellent. I love the textures of the rock, with their clear and crisp detail against the softness of the water, which pulls my eye back into the rest of the scene. Was this photo-stitched? If so, you did an excellent job.

Best wishes,

Linda

If it is from two images or not this is an excellent work you did here,I saw this location from other your photos and this one I think is the best,nice details and water effect is great,compliments.

Very nice work Douglas.

Warmest regards, Gail

It`s a beautiful picture, Douglas. I love the b/w converting  you made. Well done.

Best regards

Thank you all for your very kind and informative critiques,I should have mentioned the image is a blend of 2 exposures,one for the foreground and one for the sky. It is a single image cropped to square.

Thanks

Douglas

Douglas, when you did the two exposures, did you also do two different points of focus (one for the foreground, the other for the distant mountain)?

VERY BEAUTIFUL IMAGE!BRAVO!

stunning use of bw... great composition and details

Hi Stephen,

Both images were taken with the same point of focus, about a third of the way into the shot,the lens was @ 16mm and f16.

Thanks again

Tone, mood, composition....as with Ansel Adams or Muench I would think that 'depth of field' is what pulls them all together for me personally. Thank you Doug.
