Cloudland Canyon -Light/Water, No.3

... and welcome back. It looks as if you have recharged your batteries, if these shots are any indication.

your comments and critiques are appreciated...

Interesting scene, not too often we see trees in front of waterfalls! I like the combination of the two here, gives a nice sense of the place.

Impressive composition,John! Excellent shutter speed choice making the waterfall very attrative in the total concept. Compliments,El

Good shot !! Beautiful light . Roberto

Clever use of vertical elements - very complimentary toward one another with gorgeous illumination. A true delight to view.

Glad that you folks like the picture! I like Jay Maisel's philosophy about composition...when he says, "We (photographers) don't compose a picture. We just frame it." In the case of this shot...it was just "there". You couldn't escape the scene if you tried. So, not nearly so much credit to the photographer as to the Creator!

This is a stunning shot!!!!! Great job!!!

thank you Patsy!

Also there are several trees on the photo! lol

The water is loud and the trees are bringing to the photo more stability and give the protection.

Hi John, I just came across this photo. Nice comp and lighting. I just think that it is a little too green for me. I hope that you don't mind that I tried tweaking the colors a little. Let me know if you like it or not. Nice spot. cher..

don't mind at all Cher! i can tell a difference...but the truth is, i'm red/green and blue/green colorblind...so i might need our services on occassion! ;) thanks for visiting...jg

Your welcome. Feel free to visit and C&C on my photos. cher..

John,

 

Not sure if I were standing at the very spot I would have recognized the merits

of this image. Maybe you visualize, incubate and create all at the same time.

Excellent work.

You are brave, John: being a color-blind photographer. Although I prefer colors in the photograph that was added later, I like the softness of this photo and the moss-green colors. They look more natural.

thank you, Wayne & Janice!  i've been away from the site for several months and just found your comments. Good to be back...

Regards, John
