    Thanks for the review. This park draws many, many visitors during the seasons. Some times these tourists get in the way of a good shot also! :)

It is so many fine details in this lovely photo. Like the very fine reflections in the shiny water. The reeds placed so well as a foreground, and how well the flow of water is captured. It is a truly lovely place and you have pictured it so well.

The photo is crisp and clear with sharp and well defined details all over, an the exposure is perfect. I also like the colors where especially the red building is standing out really well.

Your POV was just perfect and I think the cropping is neatly done. The houses are well placed off to the left letting us see the whole length of the bridge. All this of course makes for a good and well balanced composition. Indeed a well taken photo and with an excellent DOF.

    Thank you very much for this thoughtful review. This photo is very special to me. I have taken many hundreds of photos of this mill and dam over the last 25 years. It is where I learned to become a photographer. As I leaned new things about composition, the golden hour, focus, editing, etc. I tried to master them at this site. Glad that you felt some of these came together for this image. Thanks, again, sincerely appreciated!

Has that perfect post card look. The sky is so perfect, I'm a little suspicious. Beautiful sharp lines, colors and DOF. Great picture. Cheers, James.

    Thanks. We live nearby so I go there frequently. I have lots of time to wait for the sky I want. They say one of the best attributes of a photographer is patience. I had just before that got a critique of one of my images that lacked clouds in the sky and he hammered me for that. This was a makeup call. :)

Excellent angle of the capture, good color, and great play of light and shadows, like nice frame, and sharp focus. I love the great amount of textures, and very nice cloudiness on background, nice reflections and depth. Well done.

Very stunning. All of the colors of nature and man work so well together. Great point of view. The focus is clear and crisp. The lighting a gift from God. I remember going to a place in Indiana like this, and you could catch so many little catfish at the bottom of the waterfall. Those are good memories.

A very beautiful photo, with superb composition and focus. Nice reflections in the water, and moving water. Sky is great, and weeds in foreground.
