This image was made long after sunset. The original, out of camera

version was a bit dark and had a heavy blue cast. This version had

Adopbe Photoshops auto levels applied and color saturation was upped

a bit. Aside from the washed out section of the water (no pun

intended) I liked this image enough to hang an 12x18 print on my

wall. Comments appreciated.

The soft light on the water and the rocks in the foregrand is wonderful, but the dark area of the trees is distracting.

Excellent asthetics. I like the subtle colors and tones in the background forest. Not very original, but there is something to be said for just beautiful photography. Nice job.

Just an all around gorgeous shot! Thanks for sharing!

It is a beautiful shot, but the black trees weaken the shot it for me.

Very nice image and the dark forest works for me. Helps keep your attention where it belongs but makes a nice accent in the background. Yes, I'd hang it on the wall.

I also like the black in the background, with just enough detail. I think this is what makes this shot stand out from the ordinary.

About the comments on the darkness of the tree area in the background. Keep in mind the image was made long after sunset and to my eyes at the time, even the river area was very dark. The area under the trees was almost pitch black but the long exposure brought out just enough detail IMHO.

J. , I like this image a lot, and I want to thank you again for your kind assistance to bring some of my own slide images back to life, including here on PN. Many of these are now lovely digital prints that I keep in folios at home and at work, so that many friends, contacts, and acquaintances can view them.

My two cents on this one is that you might consider to burn in the foreground rock a bit and dodge some of the central background area, also a bit, so that viewer's interest is not divided by these areas and so that the image focuses better on the wonderful water flow.
