One of my favorite backpacking spots. I visit often in the summer.

Any suggestions/critiques are greatly appreciated.

2stop gnd plus two exposure blend.

Thanks for looking.

(compression hurts this a bit)

Very pretty and a great comp. This has so much to look at and enjoy - colorful sky, nice water action and direction, but my favorite are the small flowers in the LLC. Nice work.

The image has so many elements, all knit together into a whole. One of my favorites is the steplike rock formation and the waterfall acting like a liquid slinky spilled down the stairs. Throw in the pink clouds the towers and the twin like tower shadows and you have a orchestra instead of a soloist. Only nit is the just slightly too bright highlights on the clouds. Great image though, putting it all together couldn't have been easy.

This is amazing Jeremy. You did a great job using several different composition elements here. The sky is beautiful and the waterfall really makes this great.

Love the composition, the color, and light. Amazing how you have retained the details in the shadows right down to flower petals in the foreground. Outstanding.

What a beautiful mountain landscape. Looks like you were up a ways. There is a lot happening in this photo, nice job bringing it all together into a cohesive whole. Everything feels balanced and flows together nicely. My only nit here is the color balance in the highlights appears a little on the magenta side, maybe it's just me though.

I really like the perspective here. It makes me want to explore the area and touch that peak. I'm a bit unsure about the highlights in the water. I think they should be more on the cooler side. Overall, a great scene!

Thanks for all the compliments, really appreciate it.

Sandra, not the tetons. :wink:

Dean, most definitely, although I just purchased a splitboard so kind of nice timing with the new snow.
