Nice color and composition. I think the diagonal oriented creek across the frame is very interesting.

I love it, Chris. What's going on on the other side of the creek is sheer beauty. Your comp is classy and works very well. A little nit about the somewhat soft web sharpening, but I'm a bit crazy about this ;)
Have a great upcoming year!

Very nice composition. The narrow diagonal line and the verticals are well composed. Nice colors too.

Love the diagonal Chris, the water is sweet and the trees look spot on.

Beautiful cascade. I love the rich array of autumn colors among the evergreens.

Very compelling image. Ironically, the thing I like the most about the image is the colors and lines in the vegetation on the far side of the stream.

Very nicely composed. You've really gotten the greens and yellows to pop here.

Larger view is a real treat Chris. Looks like I could walk right into the gorgeous autumn scene. The diagonal works well and I really like the detail and color. Beautiful work.

I've looked at this 3 or 4 times now, but have yet to comment. It's a fine looking image with very nice color and detail, good comp, etc. but something (and I've yet to figure out what) is keeping this from really striking a chord with me. Maybe it's just me!?!?! :confused:

What a wonderful place. I like the cascades and placement of it in the frame. The grasses and trees on the far side are beautiful. Nice work, Chris.

Very nice! Like the colors. South fork is one of my favorite places in fall, didn't make it this year.

Quite a nice image, Chris. The water and rocks might be a tad blue but more a matter of preference. :smile:

That is really nice, Chris. Thanks for including the larger version. Wonderful comp with the diagonal and the light and contrast are just perfect too.

This is wonderful, perhaps my favorite of yours! I really love the comp here, and those trees are wonderful!

Sitting in traffic (not driving) so this is making me happy
I can hear the stream and smell the fresh air

Great job Chris

I like this a lot, Chris. The diagonal of the creek works very well here. I'd be tempted to bump up the yellows a little bit.
