Yes it does, Bill. Only thing I might have looked at was bringing up the lighter areas on the rocks and the roots, just to focus more attention on them. As it is, I think our attention is more drawn, at first, to the background where we do see lighter tones on and amongst the trees.
I think it is a very well constructed image.
Not for me im afraid Bill, it lacks a focal point and so my eyes just wonder about the image, and the water lacks any interest. i normally quite like the smooth water look but in this image its just a tad dark to work for me.![]()
