Really like the colors and feel. The mist in the trees and the fog feel to the water mixed with the bright yellows and greens feel like out of the story. The major element of the story is fly fishing though and this only has a loose connection there. If this were another challenge I would have bumped it one maybe. 7

A very beautiful photograph! The title fits perfectly. The colors are nice and warm. But I feel like theres just something missing. I can't quite put my finger on it.
Originally I gave it a 6, but bumping to a 7

Comment by Bear_Music:
Nothing much to say here as it doesn't inspire deeper thoughts in me, but this is a very nice image that fits the title and the book very well. I'm a little less than satisfied with the actual *quality* of the image: it seems to lack sharpness at a critical level, though of course it's hard to say why at 800 pixels, but in any case it's not a serious flaw.

The white inline on the border, on the other hand, is kind of overpowering. It would work better if it were less white and not as thick, but I don't generally score down for borders.

7 from me.

A little too much Topaz or whatever you used to sharpen your shot--still a great photo, but I'm just distracted by the PP and the black borders on the sides. 6

A very heavy handed picture of a quite lovely spot. The double border does not help in the least

Comment by Garry:
A beautiful scene, and most appropriate for the chosen book! Love colors and saturation, and I love the motion blur. I am not a big fan of the excessive border and what looks to be tonemapping, though. Still Top 10 for me.

Very well done.
