Another view of the River Falloch, just downstream from the falls.
Mid-July, near Crianlarich, north of Loch Lomond, Scotland

Nikon D800E/50f1.4G/Hitech 1.2 IRND/ Lee 105mm cpl
ISO 100 2.5" f/7.1

Thanks for taking a look!
Dave

UPDATE: Done a quick re-edit of the file for posting to remove the green cast and crop to square to take a bit off the bottom.  See below!

Loads of nice detail in this!
A bit of a greenish cast?
The oof grasses in the front distract slightly.

Thanks for this critique.  I second-guessed myself on the colour balance…  partly this is because some colour correction is required with the Hitech filter.
Anyway, here is a re-edit to square with a touch taken off the bottom.  Perhaps not much of an improvement, but it is what it is.

Outstanding capture! The vibrant greens make it look authentic.
A great photograph is absorbed by the eyes and stored in the heart.

The repost takes care of my first impression of it being too green. :)

Yes, the repost addresses my thoughts on the greenish cast nicely!
The slight crop also helps.
