Excellent blue tones throughout this photo Rikki. I would of maybe liked a little more light in some of the darker areas (maybe a little dodging may bring it out) but it really is exquisite!

Very beautiful...I would like a little more detail in the blacks.

Like the blue. But not a fan of soft water. Very effective composition. The gap in the trees leads very gracefully into the water and the lighter areas of the picture (maybe lighten this area a bit more?)

I like the blue tones but I'd think about brighting this up just a tad. I'd love to see some detail from those rocks even if it's just a hint.

Very moody...your pp makes it feel like a shot taken at twilight. Very nice smooth flow to the water and I like the angle you chose to shoot from.

This is really cool! It looks like the entire forest floor is a river or that this water is just springing from everywhere. Again good exposure length for the water effects. I wasn't sure about the blue overtones at first, but they've grown on me - gives the whole image a very mystical feel. Beautiful work.

Nice comp, and good example of a halfway composition that works well. Even with the ND, it looks like there was work done on that sky maybe. Nice duotone choice. Moody and quiet at the same time.

I really love the softness that you have achieved, and I for one, "LOVE" the blue tones..... It gives a very serene feeling to the image.....

Beautiful colors!! Makes me think of winter, but the picture is somehow inviting enough that it makes up for the coldness. The tilt of most of the trees seems a little weird, but since they're tilting opposite directions I suppose there is nothing that can be done about that! I think my favorite part of this photo is the light on the rock on the bottom left.
