    My favorite is #5. I like the extreme angle and the composition of the water extended all the way from the front to the back.

    The funny thing is, that isn't water but eroded asphalt.

    Image 5 (the asphalt path) really caught my eye.If you adjusted the black point,made that great asphalt texture pop..I'd like to see this worked more Don.It's very good. Go for it!

    Hi don, Set the black levels, adjust for contrast.Do I have your permission to try an edit? I can use Nikon Capture NX or lightroom 3 .My opinion only minor adjustments are needed.
    Let me know..I have time tomorrow,I'll check back for your reply.

    I don't mind if you try a revision.

    :thumbsup: O.K. Don,
    Here it is...A revision. Minor select saturation, contrast adjustments, black point revision. This type of editing is really a personal preference,my opinion only. I like it.
