Another from my favourite river, I love the detail on the rocks and the little lone tree on the skyline.

Hi Douglas,

What a superb capture of the Scottish landscape with wonderful details! As you mentioned in your note, I do like the detailed textures on the granite stones, adored with beautiful natural colors and the water adds another piece of beauty to the picture. The sky with great patterns of clouds is very well caught. In addition, the sharpness and POV are perfect with nice color contrasts, existing within the picture.
An exceptional composition!

best regards,
Paras

PS: Pardon me, as I have no points left for today :( Please bear with me!

Great DOF, also very vivd colors. It would look even better with slower shutter speed.

Hi Douglas,
Again an excellent landscape impression of Scotland from your hand. Great natural colours, and I like the low shutter speed showing the flowing waterfall so perfect. The warm light on the rocks creates a fine mood. Excellent posting Douglas!

Hi Douglas - superb viewpoint as usual, great sharpness on the rocks, river and hills. For me though the sky just doesn't look right - it seems 'soft' if you know what I mean.. Did you use the blur tool on it? If it was as sharp as the rest of the scene I would say this would be 10 out of 10..
