Critiques are welcome :)

I think this is an over used theme (waterfalls shuter speed I mean) and still you have done it so well. Very refreshing view of a clasic!

This Site is about learning, so dont you think when you rate a picture so low, that you should comment and give some proper critisim.

Ramunas, well done. The composition seems well balanced. My eyes sweep down the waterfall, look at the foreground rocks, and then climb up the fallen tree limb to the smaller falls. There is no wasted space, no distracting elements, and everything contributes to the scene. You obviously know what you're doing, so all I can offer is a couple of ideas that you might want to experiment with: The tree limb has some warm yellow color in it that you might want to bring out to contrast with the blue of the water, either by warming the whole image or selectively the limb and maybe the rocks. Second, you might want to try a shutter speed around 0.5 - 1.0 s to give the water a little more sense of motion.

 

So, do we have enough waterfall images yet (or birds, flowers, mountains, etc.)? Lol, there is no quota on great images of any genre, and this one is great. Show more! Congratulations, 6/6 --Joe

I see that you are a new member and that you have a shiny new 350D! Although I shoot with a Nikon D70, I have heard good things about the new Canon offerings. Enjoy your exploration of the possibilities that your new camera offers and post more good photos like this one.

this is an amazing picture well done 7/7

When I rate a Photo I leave my reasoning with the score. i take Critiques serious !..

On the merits of this Photo.

In majority of Waterfall shots the intersest is not in the Fall itself but the top and bottom. Making a complete Photo. Some detail shots do work if there is lots of interest in view. When I first opened this image i wondered if it wasn't turned sideways Giving first impressions are important. A strong and defined subject with as much interest as possible.

The exposure in this shot is fair not showing blown highlites.

The Falls are squeezing the frame and does leave an intense feel not as relaxing as a looser crop to match the flow of water..

Thats is a Critique to justify the rating!...4/4

like the sense of balance.

I'm three months old amateur photographer. I don't have so many skills to criticize. By the way, I do prefer to concentrate in the emotion and the "soul" of the photo. I liked this photo very much. Show us another photos!!!
