Nice colors but the image is very soft. Some sharpening would make it much better.

Hey Cdrew

This is nice, but I'd like to crop it from the bottom a bit, below the first tree trunk. Because of the galre at the top of the frame, I'd also crop from the top a bit. I also think this is one image where a polariser would work well, to cut down glare on the leaves. The USM has helped a lot.

Cheers

Carl

These types of shots are tough to get right because of the extreme tonal range. The see-through in the upper right is distracting. You can clone it out (if you're good) or just crop the top, and some of the bottom, as well. The USM applied is way too much, try a lower setting next time.

Aside from my pointers, I like this image....
