very nice!

This is great... hard to get such perfect composition like this... 10/10, this is an awesome image.

Beautiful image Darryl, such perfect symmetry.

How do you spot these lovely images? This one looks lonely yet with a hint of motion potential. Very nice.

Wonderful composition and shot, Darryl!

wow thats a wonderful shot - very clear!

The elements are so perfectly placed, it's hard to believe they are a natural occurence! Or maybe it's the photographer and his camera angle making a good shot great! Well done Darryl.

Perfect!

I guess I'm the slow one here. Wow, thank you for the great comments. I really appreciate it:-)

Oh, well, i hope commenting hasn't been closed ... did I miss the cut off?

Henry David Thoreau said something (sorry, this is from memory) about the wood washed up in a stream bed and how that wasn't its intended destination ... and then wondered how many of his blessings and experiences had run aground on their way to him, like so much driftwood washed up on the rocks .... (*sniff sniff)

Sorry I butchered that

Beautiful light, compo, color ... so,yeah, basically ditto on what everybody else said.

Good eye for a great capture. Well done Darryl. A very interesting image and makes an awesome desktop! Thank you :))

10/10 and straight to my desktop. This is a wonderful image and I can honestly say I think you did a fantastic job here. I love nature shots and this one is right up there with my favorites.

Great shot. Nice reflections, and a cool subject

Why is this rated only 78?!? It's disgraceful!!

Anyway, I gave it a ten. As everyone else said composition is perfect. Driftwood is a beautiful object I feel. I do wonder if maybe this piece wasn't used as a mast on some old sea dawgs galleon once upon a time...

I am drawn back to this shot again and again. Wonderful composition, well done. Now in my favourites.

Thank you for the comments...they are appreciated:-)

Another fave. :)

I missed a bunch of really good work on your part while I was away, but this is clearly my favorite. OK, so why? Darn, it would take all night...First, the exposure and lighting are superb, just perfect for these forms and textures. Next, I think is the composition and how you arranged the diagonals against the other shapes. Next you filled the frame "just so". Then there's the subtle colors and the transparent water with sand and rock below and only a hint of sky. I gotta mention the white whatever is out of place, but the rest of this is so strong that my eyes literally are not distracted by that. Sincerely, this is one of my favorites ever on Caedes.

Is this in Oregon?

Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Your neighbor to the north;-)

Like this shot a lot. The diagonal lines of the rocks and log add a lot of interest and good contrast to the tranquility of the water and colors.

Excellent!

wow....what a nice shot and perfect sharpness allover the image.
the wood is nailed perfect in the capture, and those diagonal lines create a perfect depth.
10/10

Flawless photo. Absolutely amazing!!!

WOW^3

The textures are great!

Stunning, wonderful composition, great colours, awesome clarity.....what more can I say

Looks burned inside the one...like it has been places and is resting for awhile before it washes off to new adventures. The clarity and entire capture is just perfect!

Good picture. I noticed that it had been burned also. Really makes you wonder what it's hidden history really was. Probably from a burned pier.

This is an awesome capture!

I absolutely love this shot. Everything in it seems to come out just right; perfect. Most definitely a framable picture.

Outstanding work!

its nice, its calming, just amazing.. Thank you for sharing

Good composition, interesting textures and superb DoF.

Superb image, well composed and and exposure spot on. Well done top marks.

Yeah, if it could talk it would be saying, "Been there. Went through hell for that." I like the way you composed this image, the stark, light-colored log has lots of character and it's doing a great job of segmenting the shallow water on one side and the pitted stones on the other, both features that are loaded with diverse characters of their own.
