Nice light and great color in the water. I'm not sure what shutter speed you used but I like how you captured the water movement.

Marvelous! This is a favorite for sure :)

Great shot! Warm tones and the exposure looks perfect to me. Also, a nice contrast between the soft, flowing water and the crisply focused rocks.

I do enjoy your posts Steve! I like your use of late afternoon lighting here as well as the longer exposure. Clarity is sharp and you even have good color out of that Michigan lake. In my own little opinion, I believe that if one of the waves was in front of the first set of rocks, it would balance the enire image even better. As it is, it almost looks like two different images put together because of the separation in the middle....(two very nice images I might add)! Nice one.

Thanks for the comments everyone. This was the only shot taken of these rocks that evening. I was anxious to get set up for the oncoming sunset. Vince, I think if I would have spent some time here I could've gotten a variety of wave formations to frame the rocks. Live and learn I guess.

The colors in this one are just awesome, Steven. And the slow shutter speed softening the water contrasted with the sharpness of the rocks really makes them stand out. Sometimes all it takes is that one shot. From your other posts, I'm guessing the ones of the sunset were just as spectacular. As perfect as the shot is, I'm sure you're like the rest of us, always trying to find a way to make it better. For next time, it might be nice to see one of the waves rushing around the base of the rocks rather than dividing the two as Vince mentioned although I don't think it detracts from the image at all. Keep 'em coming.

WOW, I love the color of the water and the warmth of the light on the rocks. This is wonderful.
