Went down to the river hoping for a sunset which wasn't forthcoming.

Had found this weathered stump for some foreground interest and took a couple of shots.

Comments welcome

Really like the lighting in this one, Bob.
There are so many different shades of sunlight.
Great composition too.

I love this shot Bob, the lighting on the stump makes it look like it has been polished..
Can you tell us where it is???

Ii's on the Maroochy River along Fisherman's Road near the boatramp.

A little awkward to frame it up due to surrounding mangroves, rocks etc which are a bit messy.

Apart from the haloing (JPG artifact?) and the effect of the graduated filter which can be seen, I like your composition and the bluish light on the log.

I like it. However, I feel it would have worked even
better if the foliage on the left wasn't there and you
had allow more water to the right. I like the colours,
the sharpness and the tranquility of the scene that
you captured so well.
