This is a very attractive shot, and if it's one of the first you have taken then you have a strong talent - I shall look forward to seeing your future work too! The composition is spot-on and the sense of vibrant summer life comes through very well. The summer sunlight is strong enough to cause a little flare, but this could be offset by increasing the colour saturation by 1-2%. Overall the shot deserves high marks; if it comes up for me in the Voting Booth it will get it.

I much appreciate all the comments I receive about my images, but please excuse me if I don't always reply. My interest in Caedes is exceeding my time available!

A difficult shot, and you managed it very well!...
Good tonal range and composition!...as said above, a little more saturation!...
Shadows and reflections are very good too...

Nice work

What a lovely picture! You have me feeling the water on my toes, the sun on my back and the breeze on my face. I can smell the forest and, if I will keep very quiet and still, I know a deer will drop by to get a drink. Minor problem in the bits of over-bright white as stated above. Great job, this one's a keeper.

I would have loved to not have had the sun spots but then again. Its like it almost adds to the serene fill. Thanks again to all that downloaded, viewed, and or commented this shot.Thanks.

Why do you have to "put your two cents in"... but it's only a "penny for your thoughts"? Where's that extra penny going to?

These are the kind of shots that I like to take when i get the chance. You can almost hear the water running and the sunspots does add to the feel for me. Very nice job.

Ok, perhaps you know this about your camera ... on the "Quality" tab ... "EV shift" [exposure compensation] (-2EV to +2EV in 1/3EV increments).

Apart from the suggestions above ... my suggestion would be to take a couple additional photos when you encounter lighting conditions such as what was occurring in this scene. Then ... compare.

Slightly underexposed is an easier correction than over-exposed. Again, you may or probably aware of this.

And it would appear that you do have some additional control already built into your camera for adjusting dynamic range. Quoting from a review of your camera:

"... You can adjust the dynamic range here too (as you could in record mode), which brightens up the dark areas of your photos (just like Nikon's D-Lighting). As you'd expect, there's a catch: noise levels are increased. But for small prints, this feature can save you trip to Photoshop."

Found on the "Quality" tab or menu as well.

Can't recall if I made mention of this before to you ... a free image editing program. Widely used by members on the site.

Photofiltre. Check it out.

Just came back to your galleries to follow up on some thoughts regarding correct exposures.

It would seem that your camera has a number of 'scene' modes. Combining those with some exposure compensation and then, if necessary, some fine tuning in Photofiltre or whichever program you have ... look forward to seeing the future results. :o)
