We have been having a rather wet summer so far in south-central Ontario. The Nottawasaga River is a long river that winds its way through the countryside and out into Georgian Bay on Lake Huron. The river intersects several of the rural roads around my home. I captured this image of the swollen and muddy river from a bridge on a slightly stormy day. Looking on the bright side, all the rain is keeping the greenery very lush :)

Blue and brown look very good together, Andrew. The sky also mimics the river very well in terms of shape and also texture. I am a little torn about the greens. It looks a little garish for me but I always have a hard time shooting greens outside the golden hour period. I would love to hear what others recommendation on that.
It does look very Lush..! It's more like I expect to see in a Queensland rain forest... Its a simple image that well constructed IMHO Andrew. My only suggestion is to knock back the reflection on the water a little. I don't feel the green is over done...
