    I like the look of the movement with the water and I really love the angle, good eye =)

    All that is gold does not glitter,
    Not all those who wander are lost;
    The old that is strong does not wither,
    Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
    From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
    A light from the shadows shall spring;
    Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
    The crownless again shall be king.

    Hi, Phil

    As serene as this image is, I feel it lacks a strong central subject. There is a lot going on in this image and I don't know where I should be looking.

    If you intended the waterflows to be the main points of interest, I would have gotten closer to them and lost the rest (or at least used a wider angle to reduce the background).
    Please do not edit or repost my images.

    What's a Loupe for anyway?

    Thanks for the comment. I agree that angles can make a huge impact on a photograph.

    I'm with Loupey on this and if you crop out the nearest water above the log then it becomes a better photo IMHO.

    If you wanted the first bit of water then it needs more room around it to make it work successfully.
