Good move on taking Hardcastle's advice. I like it.

Appreciate that Brent, thank you! If anyone doesn't know who Gavin Hardcastle is, he is a landscape photographer originally from the UK now living in Canada. He has a very entertaining YouTube channel here - http://www.youtube.com/@fototripper

Thanks Bob, but I'm not sure what you mean?
On my display, 1920 x 1080, the image is much too large for viewing without scrolling. I'll export at 900 vertical and 1100 horizontal to keep things on one screen. Now there may be other gremlins at work, I do not know.
Somewhere there are posting guidelines however large displays etc. may render the guidelines obsolete.
Great composition Scott!
We are in the "throws" of late winter and early Spring so the rushing water plays nicely with its surroundings!
B&W is always great for evoking emotion, flow, .....

Thanks Bob, I was exporting at 1500 pixels in the long dimension and I think you're right, that may be too big for some monitors. I saw in Fred's recommendations for posting that 1200 pixels in the long dimension is recommended so I will go with that in the future.

Thank you Dan, it's still early spring here and it just snowed yesterday! Pretty soon these creeks will be raging with snow melt runoff. The light was really flat this day and there wasn't enough green foliage popping yet so that's why I went black and white. I "feel" more texture in this scene going B&W.

B&W removes the distractions of color..Spring can be a transition and possibly remove the focus from the shadows and the water getting ready to become "swift water(more texture)".
The foreground becomes more visable in B&w...you nailed the fg here....

We are due for record heat today...already 87F..
Thanks Dan, well said! Another version with a longer lens and focused more upstream. Is this size better @Bob Jarman?

You are loosing some very nice foreground here. To me streams are "long". My daze as an infantryman.....water from oncoming snow runoff needs to be accented ....or not.

I think you make a fair point here Dan, it does feel a bit too stacked, thanks for your feedback!
