Great water color to go with the shrub, and the lines from the fractures in the rocks are just as great. Well done!

Very nice. The water color is lovely and the reflection and rocks are excellent. I love the cliff-clinging fern. Great image.

Nice composition and the water color picks up the green of the plant.

I like the green water vs the green sprig. Seems a bit better balanced to me with a small crop from the top.

Really nice composition. The touches of green above the waterline really unify the image.

Very interesting comp. Feels sort of felt-tip like. I like it.

Nice scene and the green water and vertical lines makes it work.

Danny,

Well seen indeed. Excellent capture and intimate view here. I like the simplicity - anchored by that green plant beautifully. I really like the color and transparency of the water. Good eye!

Something very reassuring about this photo. It's the fern...

Love the comp, the stillness of the water, the lines in the rocks continuing their journey into the water, the color palette. The little fern looking lacy and delicate, when we who see it know that its survival means clinging with all it's might to a thin bit of soil... against all the odds... It flourishes.
