I took this picture with my old raggedy P&S. It's close to my house but only flows like this after a good rain. I'm looking forward to re-shooting this with my Canon.

Very nice shot :thumbsup: and welcome to Photography Review. I like a photo with vivid colors in it but this one needs to be toned down a bit, Jeff

A very nice location Darin. Like Jeff said, the colors are a little over the top on this image. This location is worth a re-shoot and I look forward to seeing what else you come up with from this spot.

With those colours you would not need to smelt the iron out of the rocks, just scrape it off :-)
Colours need to be toned down a lot.

Not a bad composition here... Echo everyone else on the colors, seems like a fantasy scene. Nice rocks, water, but not sure about the tree on the left side.

good composition and selection of shutter speed.. i find the contrast of the green and orange over-saturated though and a bit painful. I recommend having a play with the HLS (hue/luminance/saturation) setting in photoshop or similar... suck the saturation back about 15% and you'll be on the money.
Thanks for the input. After looking at it aging it looks like it is glowing the sat is so high. I went out and Re-Shot today with the Canon. It was windy so I had to sharpen them. What do you think of these?
Too bright?
The water looks overexposed to me?
Should I crop out the bottom like the original? More sat this time?..:idea:
Thanks again

Much better with the canon, but the colours still seem a bit off, how are you processing them? also the composition on your first shot is spot on! the last shot is very close but I guess because the wind, water and lighting aren't playing as nicely it doesn't quite work as well.
