What a really sweet look here. Love the light in this, you nailed it I would say. My only thought would be if there was a composition maybe a little less centered? This is really cool no doubt, but I wonder if you had stepped to the right a couple of feet and shot the same thing how it would have looked?

Actually Jim I do have one from as you said, practically 2 feet right. I don't like it nearly as much, it cuts off that left stream and there was a rather ugly log behind the rock which then comes into play.
Very nice shot but a little out of balance. The lush green is dominating a little to much IMHO. I would dodge a little in the river around the mossy rocks and then enhance the detail a little more. I did a little work on it and can show you my take if you like. Dave

Hey Dave, thanks for your comments. Maybe shoot me a message with the image so there's no conflicting pictures of it flying around the web.
Matthew,
I like the image, and centralized composition does not bother me at all. However, it's the same glowing green all over, so maybe it makes sense to calm it down a bit in FG, for example, by shifting hue more towards yellow, just a tiny bit, and leave the background the same as it is now. It instantly adds dimension, and makes the scene more balanced.

Thanks Sasha, I'll have a play around and see what it does

Superb image I see here, Matthew. Composition, color rendering, all come into playing for a dreamlike scene. What a capture!

Thanks a lot Kee and everyone above
Great image with some nice soft light. I have no problem at all with the centered composition. The only thing I would change is the light reflection on the stone at the left side of the foreground. I find it a bit distracting from the main subject and would probably either dodge it or crop it.
Thanks Pete.
