Excellent shot Les, the reflections in the water show off the autumn leaves very well.

Lovely Les :)

I got a similar shot but didn't get the colours as vibrant as this.
Knowing you, I'll bet you waited patiently until that motion blurred foam was in exactly the right position too :lol:

Great shot Les!

I love the bright vivid colours and the white streeks from the 'scum' actually works quite well as you say. They give a sense of movement to the water.

I wish I could afford to visit Scotland, but I'll have to wait a few more years...oh well.

Wow! Very amazing shot, I love how the water left white streaks - the water almost looks like ice that's been skated on with those, a combination of winter and fall - excellent!

The water is so calm it looks like ice. And the streaks make it look like someone skated on the ice.
