Very nice scenic, Walt! I love these old building, and one like this that still has a purpose is even better. Great capture of the wood textures and details. Have a great Christmas and New Year! Dave.

Lots of sharp detail in the wood and at the same time the water is allowed to be soft and flowing. A good choice of shutter speed/ aperture. This is one of those classic scenic views that is easy on the eye.

Thanks for ading your comments.
This mill set at the bottom of a steep hill, down in a valley, with a steep hill going up the other side. This was taken at about 7:00 AM. The shadows come from trees and the angle of the sun, coming from the East. When the sun is higher, then the light flattens out and loses color, or hue. so I have a choice of getting the morning light, or the middle-day light(overhead), or long shadows with little light. I took this picture from an old metal road bridge spanning the creek. I didn't really search for other views, but I might have gone down into the creek bed; the hill opposite is somebody's yard with NO Tresspassing signs. Obviously, too many people come and try to get diffent angles, so the owners are upset and want everybody to stay out of their property.
Just an explanation as to why the shadows are present. You see it in it's natural setting.

Walt, I think this is a very good shot. The composition is spot on, but I must admit that I do find the shadow to the left and over the stream just a little distracting. I don't claim to be an expert, just my thought. Well done.
