Hi Folks, a few more shots of flowing water and some Autumn color. Taken at the Silver Falls State Park, OR, the North Falls. I have a few more to post later. The black rock and dark substrate really made for some interesting challenges (also in post-processing). Any thoughts greatly appreciated.

    I really like 1, 3, and 6. They all seem to have a slight blue cast. Was that they way the lighting conditions were there?

    Number 3 is very intriguing with the swirls in the water and details in the rocks. On my monitor the large moss covered rock in the center is pretty dark in the lower half. Don't know if that's just me. If not, you may want to lighten that area to bring out some detail if you can.

    WOW what a place ! Number 4 just rocks, nice comp. I see you got
    your number 1 from 6, great use of a scene. My only nit is the blue
    color cast is a bit strong in photos 2 and 6 for my taste.

    I love number 1 and number 4, good series! I was going to go down there last weekend but the forecast was for clear skies (can we get some overcast rainy weather sometime this month in the northwest? Please?).

    Thanks!
    You folks are too kind. My favorite one is the first one, but I agree that some of the rest have too blueish a cast. The black rocks did not help there, and my trying to fix contrast got me into a bit of trouble with the whites, so in leaving it alone somewhat, I ended up with too much blue. Need to go back and fix that. I don't mind it as much in the first one.

    Been trying to do different Autumn shots. Thanks again folks,
