Thanks a bunch everyone! Joe, the shutter speed was 1/2 second. That gave the water a misty look. The warm highlights from the setting sun is what caused the orange in the water. I like to be creative with shutter speed when shooting water in motion. It's like an art to me. I don't always try to capture a "real" look to the water. #2534687

Well seen, and perfect placement with your GRD filter...hence, well rendered. Your capture, composition and camera placement is perfect; the tonality is wonderful and any editing is right on. No wonder the judges awarded you a POTD. What an honor! Congratulations!
This is one of my all time favorites on BP!
