Great swirls and textures mr Silver. Hope you didnt get too wet getting this picture.

'Not wet, but did see the cam take an 8" tumble to a rock, knocking the film advance winder into parts unknown. Fortunately, it appears no other damage. It *did* put me out of commission for the interior shots of the mill.

You got the tones right and the composition is very pleasing. In addition, you used a sufficiently slow shutter speed to capture the water movement.

Hi Ho, you are getting to the point where I cannot provide meaningful criticism because you are becoming too damn perfect. - David Lyga

I'm with David and Peter - perfect photograph !
I really like the glow on the washed rocks.

I'll be walking on air today Thanks to each.
Peter - *so* right. I sort of expect to be the shutter equivalent to a 'hit and miss' engine - likely for some time. Its just the dues to be paid by one willing to work & learn.

Delightful in every aspect.

I feel the image would be stronger if the top 1/4 was cropped off. The bright stuff at the top doesn't add anything to the composition imho.

Svenedin & Eric, Thank you both.

Eric - that crop crossed my tiny mind. I just now tried a crop that includes only the top water. Because of the angled path, it would have a short patch of the bright rock, terminating at the large dark rock at 11 O'clock. It *does* seem to focus it a bit. For my eye, the main creek flow is needed as a context & source of the swirling detail. I appreciate your kind help - taking the time to look & let me know your (more experienced) thoughts on the composition. In some ways I'm glad I was at least thinking in a similar direction.
