    gorgeous waterfall but i have to say it's too bad about the rock obstructing the view, or at least the angle, because that formation does look very awkward. Alas, I know what it's like to have the good shot but the awkward angle given to me, Its good for what it is!

    Ha! Different rylan. I think the tech aspects are pretty good. Unusual perspective though. It will not appeal to everyone, but it has style. This shot cries out for a crop or two. Play around.

    I don't mind the rock and appreciate the different angle. If it bothers you, maybe you can clone out some of the rock, making the waterfall wider.
    Keep Shooting!

    Thanks Frog, i like how the rock is there, it shows how hard it was to get a "decent" shot of the subject!

    Re: Water Fall!

    I would crop off most of the green on top and a bit from each side. for me, the outlines of the rocks brought out by the bright water behind them is what is interesting and can be the subject. I can see what looks like the profile of a man"s face in the rock on the right side.

    Re: Water Fall!

    Guys, I tried a few crops. They seemed to lose too much. I think it might be best exactly the way it is after all
