That's a long exposure, must have been very calm and windless that morning! I enjoy the colors here.

Colors/shapes appear very soft and dreamlike. Looks good.

Those are the nicest shade of blue. Almost like looking at white flowers under a blacklight.

Thanks folks!

The ambience was really dreamlike, like from the movies of "The Lord of the Rings" series. The day was sunny but sun still not high enough to bring the light over the high canyon walls and penetrate the forest. Besides, there was a little amount of fog floating near river's surface.
Here is the photograph of the ambience captured almost at the same place and time (52 sec later).

Wonderful image Nikola. The color just glows. Well done. What is the name of that flower?

I'm not sure Irwin. It grows like a weed. It could be a kind of mustard plant. Leaves are similar to those of garlic mustard... also four petal flower... ???
