Late afternoon at Pearl River Swamp. Taken in the summer '08. I posted a similar photo last year, I experimented editing and blurred it some.

An excellent photo, showcasing depth of field so wonderfully. The colors are excellent and since I do not see those pesty flying insects, I would love to follow you down that stream with my camera.

Simply beautiful. I wish I had your editing skill. I don't have to blur on purpose. LOL.

I think I can hear bullfrogs in the distance. I like the effect you used. Softening the greens makes for a nice scene.

The soft tones of green allow the viewer to enter into the black water and follow it back into the capture. A great sense of depth I would say. Wonderful image.

This is a cracker Elizabeth! The focus/dof is a bit distracting in the right lower corner but other than that I love everything about this, the comp rocks, the high contrast rocks and the multiplicity of textures is sweet.

The blur gives a nice softness to the overall image, and I'm loving the different shades of green and touch of yellow. Spectacular reflections and composition! Truly beautiful work! :)
