Thanks for the suggestion Frans. I gave it a -12 vignette at the outer edges but like your idea of centering on the center tree and will give it a try when I get home. I am on my way driving from Florida to Massachusetts and enjoying the Blue Ridge Parkway where the rhododendrons are about to burst forth. |

Hmmm....nice, but I'm not sure...to me the grasses add a sense of scale which adds depth to the image. |

Thanks Todd. There's a lot of Polo played near me so I get lots of practice shooting high speed as well as panning blurs which I find effective in de-emphasizing distracting backgrounds. |

Light illuminates and shadows define. Just gorgeous. The foreground grasses ground it. Great composition and light. |

I love the way the exquisite foreground flowers provide a sense of peace and tranquility to a busy summer beach scene on a beautiful day.
My only nit might be the end of a distracting limb sticking out of the right side green foliage.
Lovely composition. |

Remarkable Temple, colors, capture, and editing over a wide dynamic range of light. Technically excellent; no blown out highlights, good detail in the shadows, sharp focus hand held in a crowd of jostling tourists. Bravo!
Thanks for sharing this special spot of the world with us. |

Love this soft fog rolling in from the sea - seems it might burn off soon and so you just caught it in a beautiful warm early morning light. Really makes the image. Especially over the water. |

Good for you - you were up at that magic moment to catch the perfect light! Just lovely. Too bad the sky was fairly devoid of interest.
I'd be tempted to try the graduated filter on the sky, decrease exposure to extract some more color and try dehaze a tad to see it's effect on that bald sky; otherwise consider cropping the sky out closer to the city to keep the focus on that gorgeous light. |

I see the cascade as your main element, and since it's located next to the largest brightest centrally located boulder I darkened that boulder to de-emphasize it.
Your composition takes good advantage of all the repetitive flat layered rocks providing nice leading lines to the cascade from both the left and the right.
The random arrangement of the rocks in upper right frame distract from that pattern and so I gave them a small crop which simplifies the scene and also brings more attention to the fall.
In LR I added a radial filter with clarity and dehaze to bring out the detail in the deep water pool at the bottom of the falls. Also added a small vignette to emphasize the falls.
Lovely intimate landscape.
