The river Semois in the belgian Ardennes. One of the scarce minute of sun, november isn't a sunny month here...

Note about DQ: the blue part of the sky was slightly stretched (free transform tool in CS3 to fill in the corner after rotation). Although there was no new pixel, there was indeed a new area: I can understand the DQ.
I just regret it comes so late:I had asked the SC 7 days before deadline and, without answer, hadn't uploaded a cropped image.
Well, so you learn....

I wish the mountains behind the bridge either went higher above it or weren't there - right now they're so close that I find it a bit distracting. Other than that, nice composition.

Nice bridge. Annoying foreground foliage. 6

the top half of this image is gorgeous, but that bush in the bottom left corner is very distracting.

GORGEOUS picture - however the brush/grass/weeds at the bottom corner are really distracting. Wish they werent there.

Nice looking bridge, great water and great colours ... processing almost pushed to far, just about on the edge

Seems like the foreground rushes are blown... Otherwise I really like this shot... the water is beautiful. (not voting yet)
