Well composed Kobus with the FG rock diagonally leading left and the middle ground rocks on the right leading to the mountain BG, nice tension with the opposing leading lines.

Though I am AOK with the overall luminace of the image, opening up the shadows will yield a much different look. I tried a PS Shadow/Highlight adjustment and liked it. Might want to try it out.

Hey Kobus,
Very nice use of the slow SS to enhance the water and give it a nice feel. I agree with the shadows too.....but I think both work.....so just a different version of this....both excellent!

Thank you all for the great comments and suggestions. I like this one more but agree the highlighting it does look nice.

lovely work yet again buddy...love the eerie feeling the "scaly" rocks evoke...blending and comp superb and colour tones very nicely varied.

Hi Kobus, Very nice job on this! The comp works well The 6 sec exposure really smoothed out the water and gave it an ethereal quality. I happen to like the subtle detail...Well handled..
