The effect is beautifull, i would like to see this river from another perspective though.

Good exposure of a nice scene but that log sticking out kind of spoils it.

LOVELY! I like the leaves in the foreground. I wish it were a bit sharper on the focus.

Not voting.

Nice stream time exposure. It looks very peaceful. I'd love to be able to head there for a lunch break and just be totally at peace.

The water looks so solid, something I'm not a huge fan of but it's a well executed technique here none-the-less.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

well considerably well taken bit overexposed on some places and maybe Id go for composition set more to the right , that space on the left is senseless and you could see more of the river...
just four from me sorry ;D


take care, brano

Well captured and presented. Water motion is pleasing.

The post on the left catches my eye a bit but otherwise a very nice shot.

Nice softness to the water. The composition is okay.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 03:42:29 PM
Beautiful shot of the stream! I might have cropped the top down to just above the waterfall, but that's just a personal preference. Nice detail in the leaves and I like the smooth water.

really pretty water scene
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Beautiful shot... love the colors!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/15/2009 01:04:20 AM
the impact from the water flow is somewhat muted, this brings down the wow factor.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 11:25:59 PM
Wonderful streaming water and autumn colors.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

A lovely autumn scene, very good composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Good shot. Wish that branch on the left wasn't there though!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 07:54:04 PM
great exposure
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 06:33:29 PM
I like this, it's nice and simple. It's well composed and the lighting is simple and effective. Would look great on the wall!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 04:24:49 PM
Nice shot. Perfect shutter speed and nice colors.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 02:20:49 PM
Whatever that little dark thing is in the water really draws my eye away from the rest of the beautiful shot.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 12:58:14 PM
really nice exposure control
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 10:12:23 AM

Beautiful autumn scene. Very good capture of the water's flowing motion. 7

I really like this image, but it would have been better to have removed that tree branch sticking out on the left.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/14/2009 12:57:24 AM
I love the autumn colors. Nicely done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice effect in the water
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 07:19:29 PM
It bubbled and burbled and went on its way, as it had done for so many a year.

Where it began, and where it did end, was not there and was certainly not here.

A provider of life and a vessel of death, and a path for those lost on their way.

Let us honor the brook as it runs ever cool, 'cause I've run out of things I can say.

Nice motion blur on this shot.

Beautiful detail and good exposure. Very well done! 9

03/13/2009 04:46:35 PM
great colors and depth of field, the only thing i find distracting is the log that extends to the rapids. some work for the ol' chainsaw, yeah!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 12:41:59 PM
The water is soft and lovely.. the post on the left bugs me.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/13/2009 12:02:09 PM
wow, this is beautiful
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 07:44:13 PM
I can almost hear the babbling brook from here. So relaxing and peaceful to look at.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 07:24:48 PM
I love the silky water. Great job with the long exposure.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The water looks beautiful!

03/12/2009 01:32:39 PM
nice water motion, but lacks that snap.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 01:03:04 PM
Pretty colors and blur. Nice natural feel.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Ready for winter to begin?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 11:30:30 AM
nice long exposure, but the stick on the left is a little distracting
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 11:18:14 AM
Great composition, detail and exposure. The colors seem a bit muted, though just a touch of contrast/saturation or adjustment of levels could give it a bit more dynamic?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/12/2009 09:30:11 AM
Love the composition and POV, nicely done.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 09:51:50 PM
What a great photo. Now head back there and move that log and take this again. Same photo time, same photo settings. Gave ya a 7
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 09:31:44 PM
Ahhhh. A gentle falls in the autumn.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 09:19:26 PM
how quite this must be...really like the smoothness of the water...one minor (unimportant) detail...the stick on the left...couldn't move it or clone it out?? Otherwise (and really that doesn't matter) an excellent shot
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 05:08:03 PM
Pretty shot, good dof. Only thing that distracts me a bit is the branch running up and right into the falls.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 02:14:22 PM
Nice movement of the water through the photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 01:48:06 PM
Looks like a beautiful place, but the image seems to be lacking a bit in sharpness. The leaves at bottom left in particular look not sharp, and, at least to my eyes, that hurts the image. The large tree trunk butting in at middle left is distracting.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 12:23:34 PM
Good exposure and composition. The tree stump is a little distracting since it is directly on the falls.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice silky water complimented by the colour from the leaves
  Photographer found comment helpful.
03/11/2009 06:30:55 AM
nice scenery, natural looking colors, but focal point is not clear, no subject to rest the eyes upon

wow very peaceful
