Love how it fills the frame. And even though the gold tones are beautiful, I keep wondering how this would look in b/w...

You got it right withthe title; reminded me more of Freud who did not think that this country shall be inhabited because of its fierce climate. Well, he was wrong in a lot of ways. But, mighty scary your capture!

Hi Gaylord,

There's some nice technical work here. The image is sharp with strong color, and lovely motion blur in the water. The tonal range is good with a full range of shadow to highlight.

What isn't working so well for me is the composition. The image is very busy compositionally. I find my attention jumping from the lovely curving lines of the tree on the right, to the the bright green foliage in the center, to the soft flowing water on the left. Each part works well independently, but not so well together as one cohesive scene. In summary, I find this to be a technically excellent image that would be improved with a more isolated single point of attention.

Wow. Hope the cloud didn't come your way after you took this. Particulates in the air always make for such dramatic photos, well captured.
