Beautiful greens and very peaceful looking scene. For some reason my favorite part is the upper right could be the fern, but I like the image in it's entirety.

This is awe inspiring. Would a little off of the top hurt this at all? I agree the greenery around the rocks and throughout the scene is really inviting. Thanks for sharing.

I am enjoying the green lushness, especially compared to AZ. Perhaps a crop of the top to eliminate the sky showing through?

Lush and intimate. The stream lines lead you into the frame and the fern in the upper right provides a nice focal point for the eyes to rest. I do kinda find the highlights at the top of the frame a bit distracting...

I agree with the other suggestions on the crop, otherwise this is a gorgeous and lush scene and I really like how the water appears from nowhere. :toast:

Beautiful intimate scene. Well composed. Love the little green army approaching from the mid background.

Tranquility is right, very nice, Jeremy. I do not find the sky distracting at all and would not crop a thing. :toast:

Lovely intimate scene. The various greens are great and the stream makes the perfect leading line. I agree that the sky peaking through the trees isn't adding any thing and think that a crop just above the big fern on the right helps the focus.

Jeremy,

Just simply gorgeous. Other than the sky patches comments, I have no nits or suggestions. A garden setting is what came to my mind as well. Fantastic image.

I kinda liked the light at the top of frame, because it gives you a sense of where the light is coming from. Although I can see that it may be distracting for some. Here's a cropped version...thanks guys!

Nice. Not nits at all.

Edit: Do like the crop better.
