Perfectly idyllic and peaceful.

But being the artist at the level you are, I will make a comment about the fallen tree relative to the falls. You may want to separate them apart some. The fallen tree spanning the water looks on one hand like the water is falling behind it, and on the other owing to the values and placement of the value changes, looks like the water's falling on it (though not splashing which of course it's not) and it sort of confuses the depth in that area of overlap.

Might be that the lighting could be changed on the log to where more of it is being hit by light across the top to the left of the falls rather than having the shadow stopping the light right at the same place where the falls end. The light in that center area are doing a sort of Escher. They're, by coincidence, connecting. Might run a top light along the top side of the log to separate it and let it come forward. Just a thought.

Other than that I love it. It's a place I would love to be too. The palette, theme and details are great!

John, so good to learn that you are on the mend and attending "art therapy". It is always a distinct pleasure to view your works. Take care and listen to your wife.
