This has a tangible effect - knowing how that must feel. Nice 'imperfection' in this with some lovely fluid motion and muted tones. The movement in the trousers is a bit distracting but overall a different, pleasing shot.
First of all. I like the colors. The do a very nice job conveying the cool temperature of the water. The flow of the water and the background do an excellent job setting context for the photo. The composition suggests that he's not just cooling tired hot feet, but in fact laying back resting his whole body; that the water is rejuvenating all of him. I have sat with my feet in streams just like this, and felt refreshed just like this. You have done a nice job recreating that experience for me. Thanks.
I can relate to this! I do a lot of hiking in the Sierra - and look forward to this exact event. Great idea, perfect shuttter speed for the water. Just a very well done image.
Crop vertically, right iside, just left of the patella, and I think you will have a work of art. Yes the blues in the water match the denim very nicely, but proportionately there is eough of it already without the big patch of blue jean. Otherwise, beautiful colors! Cropping would also direct the eye to the focus which is feet. Re: title...simply "After a Long Hike" would be enough, as the picture tells the rest and very well!
