36 Sep 19 Comment That is a really good image. I really like the composition of the falls. I've been experimenting with exposure times for moving water. I agree with the suggestions made by Arne and Micheal. The rest of the image looks a little soft to me, particularly the trees. You could try mildly sharpening just the trees and bushes in the foreground. I typically will use an unsharp layer where I paint in the areas I want to sharpen on a mask and the reduce the opacity of the layer to between 30-50%. I am attaching an image where I did that as well as what was suggested above. I also tweak the contrast a bit. See what you think. Sep 10th
36 Sep 19 Comment I really like the composition of this image and how the shed in the foreground is balanced by the windmill in the background. I agree Richard about the sign and Arne about perhaps darkening the whole image to give it a little more drama, particularly the sky to make the clouds pop a bit more. Sep 9th
36 Sep 19 Comment Very nice B&W image and very reminiscent of Ansel Adams. I really like the whole composition and would not change anything. Sep 9th
36 Sep 19 Comment I love this image, particularly the clouds and shadows. The road gives a nice leading line into the valley and mountains. Sep 9th
36 Sep 19 Comment Wow that's a great image. I love the lighting, the colors, and the stitching is flawless. Did you use a plugin to stitch your images? Sep 9th
36 Sep 19 Reply Thanks for you input, Micheal. I see the area you're talking about, it is a little light and could draw your eye away from the falls. Sep 8th
36 Sep 19 Reply Thanks for your input, Richard! Sep 6th
36 Sep 19 Reply Thanks Larry! Good catch on the spot, I missed that one, there were several others I cloned out. I think it was actually a water droplet. Even though I was in a sheltered area, there was still some spray coming off the falls carried by the wind. I was periodically wiping my lens off but still managed to get some droplets on it. I normally just use Photoshop to edit, but I will take a look at the crop overlays in Lightroom. Sep 6th
