Outstanding composition. I thought this would work better in B&W, checked it out, and I think it does. The composition stands on its own without the color enhancements, imho.

Gorgeous scene of this convergence of water over these rocks or boulders here, Bill. The dabbling light across the area could not be any better. A well seen and captured image from this POV of this river & the water cascades. :cool:

Bill, I like the light and textures you captured here. Your comp looks really good and I love how it shows off the water motion. Your larger version is really worth the look! Very nice! :smile:

Bill, I enjoy the dynamics of the flow together with the rocks anchoring the scene. The exceptional lighting really brings the image to life for me.

Terrific! Love all the action with the flow splitting in the middle and the splashes of color and light scattered around for additional interest.

Love how the water flow is going every which way yet your composition brings a definite dynamic that organizes the chaos superbly. Love the touches of color and your choice of shutter speed. Outstanding work in my opinion.

Excellent choice on the shutter speed, it captures the flow of the water perfectly. The sunlit green rocks add great highlights to the scene. Very dynamic image, well done Bill! :toast:

One of the nicer water intimates I've seen in a while!
