What a difference in water flows.
Here is a shot from mid May at flood level.

Definately a big difference. Really nice images also. I'm not a huge fan of that super shapr, digital look produced from HDR, but you certainly are good at it.

I love the first one! But I'm not sure about the way blue cast (shadows) or the pink sky! :(

I like to add drama to images but watch the color shifts. Topaz can burn you as quick as it can help you!

Thanks for the comments. I want play a little more and try some some softer images. More on the Dizzy side:D

they look pretty neat to me. Our water levels change that drastic here also. But unfortunately i cant make the cow pastures look that dramatic. cool stuff

These are all so cool! I'm ok with the artistic expression of color. Just so fun. Very dynamic looking. All hold my interest. I can honestly say they don't look realistic from a color standpoint to me, but I don't think that is the point here. These are fun and highly appealing images. I would love to have these. Good work Mike.

I love the 2nd and the 4th the best. Though the second image looks like it has some posterization in the sky.
