Hi, it's been awhile again. Here is a photo from the West Branch of the Lackawanna River in Northeast PA. Taken with a 15-second exposure at ISO-100. Thank you for looking and any comments/critiques!

Hey Bill, welcome back! I like your comp and the ss choice for the stream. With the exception of the dark area under the big rock, this seems a bit flat, I'm wondering what a mid-tone S curve would do, since you do have to be careful with the shine on the tree leaves. Using a polarizer might have added some pop also.

I agree with Mark--seems like you overcompensated for DR or something.... I do like the scene, i even like the long exposure whihc i usually dont care for but it works for me here.

A very nice comp here Bill and a nice look to the water also. I agree with Mark's comments as the scene looks too bright and fairly flat. I think a little work would make this very nice.
