Title: Moss and Water

This kind of thing becomes possible when there's a high, thin overcast: a great softbox in the sky.

Nice one.

It doesn't look a bit like Colorado!  ;)

It's interesting to look at, especially for me as it's not something I have seen and so I can enjoy exploring the image. I know you're not a great one for cropping Russ but maybe a little off the left edge?

I'm not good with complicated shots and composition but this one seems to work for me pretty well.

Nope. No crop.

It has a nicely balanced composition, with a nice sense of depth with the soft light coming through the darker foreground.

I felt the one piece of real colour wasn't in quite the right place and a slight crop might make it sit a little more comfortably. But it's not my image so I'm not qualified to judge.

You're certainly qualified to judge, Mike. I don't agree. That doesn't make you not qualified to judge.
