 I shot this with lots of other DPC'rs around...none of them followed me....hmmmm....busy taking pics of each other, I guess...though one of us hadn't made it around the corner yet....wonder if that one stood where I stood...let me reflect, I think he did!

I bumped up hue/sat in various channels. I fiddled a tad with levels. I cropped and un-cropped and cropped again (and again) until I got it close to what I wanted. Really not much else here, technically, though, come to think of it, I did de-sat the lower left corner a bit after the reds bumped the rusty plant life in the water beyond what most would believe to be a "true" stae...doesn't always matter if it is or not. :-)

I had the most wonderful day out!

very nice use of wide angle! ....I love how low you got to make the viewer follow the river down stream... best of luck ;)

Nice wide angle shot. I like the water. If there had been just a bit more light on the rockfaces I would have scored it even higher - bumping it up after a second look.

Very cool perspective from this low angle, and the swirling water creates a nice visual flow. A little on the dark side- I suspect a lighter midtone and saturation might liven it up with the green and orange foliage at the top. The two leaves in the water make a good counterpoint, and an extra color boost there would have been a nice touch, too.

You see alot of these soft water time exposures...I have yet to see one from an angle such as this. Props for taking a very classic photograph and putting a fresh spin on it. One of the few from this challenge that I personally would like to hang in my home...for what its worth. =) I would LOVE to see a high res version of this. A 10 from me

Very nice water. This is a great image. I love the dark tones and the unnatural contrast of the smooth water and the rocks at either side of the river. The hint of fall colors in the background is really lovely.

Water is beautiful, the rest of the picture could be a little lighter though...
