This is gorgeous. There si so much to like in the scene-- the warm afternoon
sunlight, the composition, the flowers and weeds and their colors. The scene has
a nice *choice* of colors, too-- not *every color in the rainbow* but a
restricted palette. (Personally, I think that's an attribute of some of the best
paintings.)

I think many of the rocks are a bit too 'flat'-- several look like turtles (uh,
maybe they ARE turtles!) But as Thomas noted, sinking them further into the mud
would be a choice, along with fattening them up along the y-axis. Although I
really like your rough-looking rock and stone textures in most of the scene,
river rocks have a tendency to be smoother.
