Eric, I really like the moment you captured. I think this can really benefit from some further processing. If it were mine, I might add more contrast (the color looks really flat right now) and maybe boost the saturation a little. I might also sharpoen it a bit more. I think you can make a big difference with this shot and make it stand out much more.

Excellent pose, Eric. A lower angle might have de-emphasized the brighter patches of water. I like the stream of water coming off the raised foot. :toast:
