Another well seen and composed photo. I think trading off ISO for shutter speed, perhaps ISO 400 at 1/8s to get the same Ev and DOF but with much less noise and a bit of smoothing of the water would have also been a good choice.

Very nice.
Looks like a neat area with a lot of photo ops.
Not sure about the choice of f20 though....

I was in a precarious position to get this angle on the scene and had to be hand held.

At f20 I got enough DOF. Would not have got it at f10.
