The Good:
There is very little that can be said about this particular image. Its very well done, the detail is phenomenal. I would have to disagree with the commenter in this image about the water, using an exposed shutter to get more of the flowing direction of the brook adds a more smooth feeling to the stream, especially noticeable in the distance. Great lighting and shadows, great imaging.

The Bad:
I am not too fond of how dark it is about midway through the image, the shutters aperture could have been adjusted a little bit. The shadow is great in the distance, but foreground should be a bit brighter.

The Bottom Line:
The con isn't enough to drive down the rating, and I believe in no such thing as a perfect picture therefore you cannot get a perfect rating. Very well done, keep up the good work!
