Can you give you opinions on this photo......anyone!

That's a beautiful scene! Where was it taken?

Just a few suggestions...first, it seems the shutter was left open just a tad too long. You can tell by the overexposed highlights in the water. Although, I have to say you did better than I've ever done trying to do the same thing.

Second, I would crop out the boulder on the bottom left. It's a bit distracting.

Other than that, great shot!

Thanks for you thoughts. I have thought the same thing with the cropping of the bolder. I think I have lightened it too much I thought as well. It was a very dark area and I didn't think it would be anything that good. It was at the St. Columbia Falls Tasmania.
Do you think cropping it here would be ok?

I've played around with another shot and I think this one is better. What do you think?

Very nice. The crop works well. Beautiful scene. Also an excellent candidate for an Orton effect.

The crop is better. Looks slightly grainy-----did you use a higher ISO than normal? I don't think it detracts a whole lot from the scene, I was just wondering. Great colors, too.

The ISO I used was set to auto. The area was a really dark place where the photo was taken. At the bottom of a huge waterfall amongst the rain forest. Would the grainy effect be caused from low pixels due to adding to this forum?
