There are not any rivers running through the mountains in my part of the world. Mainly because there are no mountains. In these tough economic times, travel is not an option for me to travel to the mountains for a contest photo. If it cost a nickel to go around the world, I couldn't get out of sight.

Dear SOT,
You are so right that I could not agree with you more !
No mountains, dirty river and no money to travel - is my case ! gggrrr
However, I can still enjoy the other's beauties of mountains & rivers combinations and designs. This is a great looking Nickel River LOL

It is a beautiful shot Tick. The high banks of the river can be accepted as substitutes for mountains. I like the trees and the cloudy sky.

Whether something's a mountain or not is reative. The highest point in Holland is only 1050ft above sea level and it's called a mountain so anything you show us and say it's a mountain I'll accept it. This image has the air of an oil painting about it. Gorgeous.

Whatever you say it is is alright by me. This is a beautiful image. It does look like a painting and could easily be made into one.

This is a perfectly good river, worth much more than a nickel, and you photographed it splendidly. You even got in a twist and a turn in the river... I like it!

Fabulous posting old mate!.. colours are really stunning here..excellent details too..(New lens?)

They say you can built a mounting from a mole hill..so you should have plenty of those for a nickel!

Beautiful! Had there been a little more water in the river, they could rename her the Dime River. Love the sky and colors presented here.

A beautiful looking image and lovely scene Tick. Great colours and sky in the photo. Those low hanging clouds must be blocking the view of the mountains. Best of luck in the contest.
