Thanks Jeffery, they are almost like a kitchen steel wool scourer.

Interesting images Isac. What PP did you use on images #2 & #3, the water looks like oil. Image #4 has a HDR feel to it.

Cheers John. Very little PP. My favourite shadows lift and my regular sharpening. Nothing else. The water did have that look. The stream flows under the road and the oily road film is washed into the waterway when it rains, which we have had in recent times.

Good for keeping the mozzies at bay, not much good for the health of the environment.

It's just the way it is. It doesn't seem to make its way down to the lake, so that's a good thing.
