    Another beauty from your time here.
    You have wonderful still water, great light, excellent POV and good IQ.
    Good HA and exposure perfect.
    Only thing I would do is clone out the lowest linear specular highlight in the water,
    Gail

    Hi John, each of your images from your series is different. Excellent exposure, sharp, and love the droplets on the head. I would maybe take a bit off the bottom. Congrats on another fine image.

    This place is a goldmine, and this is another excellent image. It's nice to see the female getting for lens time! Perfect angle, colors, and details, like the others.

    Another beauty all around, although I agree with Gail about that specular highlight.
