I would prefer this image to begin at the top right just above the waterfall. Outside of this this is a highly photographic impressionistic image wherein nothing was used but the water movement to create a great image with beautiful patterns of water flowing over rocks.

This image is more remiscent of an pencil rendition. the image has great movement but lacks the bold effect desired in the impressionism style. The fine delicate texture detail is more the property of the classic masters of the old style. While this image borders on many styles, it does have enough interest to pull the eye and entertain it. Again, the image is good but the subleties and detail places it in a different class. Bumping up on its highly intriguing look. Intriging because it is a detailed image with great shading and yet no spatual depth which is what makes it special.

A very nice and lovely image with very impressive colors. It falls short of impressionsim in that this is more a faithful depiction with a great variety of discreet forms. Regardless, it remains a nice and pleasant study. Bumping up on its sheer beauty.

Now, this is a lovely image and it abounds in great blending of hues in the sky. This very beauty is the antithesis of the impressionism style. Bumping up on great colorful image because regardless of the challenge it is a a very nice image.
