Shot on the last trip with don and Alan. These water courses weren't even considered in the dry August journey there, but now provided some drama. Aplogies, I seemed to have downsized to 800 pixels instead of 900.

Love the feeling of movement in the first one, and thanks for sizing them so they can be viewed without scrolling

hugh

I find the layers in the second image quite appealing. Always nice to see those greens contrasting with Autumn foliage in the Olympics.

Two stunning shots, Tim. I love the splashes of color and your shutter speeds are great. Well done!

Sharon

Fine shots Tim. Lots of interesting detail and textures. Well done.
David

I like the autumn colors in second one, great work, Tim.
Karl

Both are nice Tim, but the second is spectacular! What a cool contrast between the 99% green rain forest and the 1% yellow/red autumn leaves. Great shot!

Tim

Tim, #2 for me, I love that splash of colour!
cheers Andrew

Hey Tim,

Pretty cool, though a bit tooooooooo HDRish for me... But still pretty nice looking. I like the amount of water movement you got in both of those, that looks pretty neat. Now as to your downsizing to 800px instead of 900px... you are supposed to be downsizing to 800px... not 900px anyway...

Very cool really like the lush greens you have captured here along with the nice flow of water. Really digging #2 and the zig zag of the water and that fall color really adds nicely to an already easy to the eyes image, great work here Tim

Ray Still

An excellent takeaway in #1 (even if it is not Graves Creek ). Just seeing it makes me feel like I'm there again.

Nice shots Tim. I don't recall I got any of that creek you show in the first image.

Do I detect a hint of CEP Tonal Contrast in the processing here? Seems a little heavy as an effect in the trees of the first image. Try dropping back less less than half of the default values for all of the light ranges for a less noticeable effect and a saturation value of no more than 7%.

Alan

Very nice colors in that second one. Print that one.

thanks for the comments everyone. I looked back at my larger images, and the downsampled ones, it seemed the images got a bit darker and 'crunchier" in the conversion. Not that I'm not often guilty of such things Ok, a softer presentation and further consultation with Don on the identification of said watercourses. Mea culpa. Alan, thanks for the values.

Beautiful Tim! The second image really sparkles! The first image is Howe Creek, which doesn't really matter - all I care about is that it is a beautiful piece of work.

Very nice, Tim. The autumnal colours in 2 are super.
So much water everywhere - we only had a fraction of that in August but I am not complaining.
Ute

Lots of rich colors, Tim. I also like the speed at which you shot the water.

Wayne

Gorgeous. Love the convoluted soft water in the first and the comp and colors in the second. WEll done!

Jose

Love the depth upstream in the 1st and the amount of water in the 2nd is incredible, especially compared to August!

Barry

Yes the rivers & streams are looking much better this Fall. I like #2 with the contrast, and my eyes naturally follow the creek to the top. A nice composition.
