When I saw this, I thought it looked familiar. I was in Estes park in 2007 for a wedding I shot and took this photo

Definitely taken from the same little bridge w/ a polarizer stacked w/ a Gradiant ND.

Nice work. Not much has changed.

Obvious use of a tripod, or any other long-term stabilization tool (1-10 *is not the score of the shot though*): 10
Something seems a tad bit off with the photo. It's almost like your tripod encountered a very slight bump. Some of the stationary objects have that ever-so-slight nervousness in them - as if your tripod got bumped.

Very cool scene, especially with the dead logs that are seemingly making their way down the river. One thing that I notice probably because I'm extra sensitive to it is possible chromatic aberration in the tops of the trees (against the sky).

Obvious tripod use: High.

Great scene, spoiled just a little IMO by the processing. But that's just personal preference. Others will probably love it. Good luck.
