This is my second try at these falls. This is also my first try at HDR. The sun was out making the contrast quite difficult so I thought I'd give it a try. I don't have a blending program so I did it manually. I had a lot of fun blending the two images by painting the mask layer with all sorts of shades of gray to get the effect I wanted. As always your comments are welcome and informative.
