Yeah... Exposures were just a bit too long... BUT solution to your unsharp leaves... 2x Exposures, 1 for the water, 1 for the leaves, and then merge them together...

Basically copy pasting your picture together. Sorry that's beyond 'photography' for me.

that could be just as stunning, the colourful leaves on the ground with the bear trees
try it

The leaves are dry and brownish colored on the ground

I don't see much of a difference in that and HDR personally.

you cannot really shoot nature with 75 seconds exposures and expect leaves and trees to be sharp.......

kinda sad tho

Shots would have been so much more interesting if you hadn't done such long exposures.

Slowing water down is fine, but in this case, I don't think it adds anything to the shot.

How about this other version? It's a 1.6 second exposure

Hello,

This last photo is indeed better than first ones and long exposure water pics are always interesting, but imo the temperature is still too warm, just cool it down a bit when editing RAW. This orange water doesnt look good and also red colors are a bit too much.

hf trying it .. =)
