Yeah, I'm not much of a WA hound, but sometimes ya gotta have wide! I'm
not sure I would be comfortable slippin' and slidin' around in a place
like that with the 7-14 - big, heavy, bulging, exposed front element and
lotsa $. The 11-22 is only about 23 mm eq. horizontally, although that
may be enough, and overlaps quite a bit with the 14-54. I don't know
what I'd do.

I like the 'idea' of ethereal in the pristine woods. :-)

Thanks! I tend to post images that are on the edge and come back to them
occasionally to see how I feel about them later.

Did you look at the whole series? It's meant to be seen that way. This
particular image in not my favorite in some regards, but one may go a
lifetime without catching a glimpse of a Water Sprite, so I had to
include it. Did you see the Sprite? I've reposted with a roll-over to
highlight this elusive (and ethereal?) being.
