Like the photos just wish there was more of the stream visible.

My thoughts:

#1: I was originally going to complain about how dark the shrubbery at the bottom is... but I think I like it the way it is. The way the stream reflects the sky and trees makes it pop out of the darkness. Nice work.

#2: This doesn't really do anything for me. The branches that are in focus are all crazy and haphazard, making my eyes dart around. The berries are too bright on the right and too dark on the left. A reflector would have helped here.

#3: I love your composition in this one. This is a nice image. I would have stuck my camera on a tripod and let the stream blur a bit in a longer exposure.

Thank you for the comments.

Rebekah, I agree with your assessments and ideas. #1, I am still not happy with the foreground. #2, I see a little chromatic aberration on the right side of berries.. and it's overexposed.

More stream! I'll work on it. thank you again PH and BA!
