B&W falls

Spent a Sunday afternoon trying some shots in the rain. I was hoping to get pictures without the blown waters I usually get at this falls. Not a lot of color in the original picture so i went to B&W. This is about 80% of the original file. cropped and adjusted in Photshop CS5.

C&C appreciated.

canon 7d, 24-105L@ 36mm, f22, .5 sec, no filters, tripod, cable release

Nice shot. Really like your shutter speed. Get any more intimates of just those two large cascades on the right?

This has a nice flow to it Neven. You have done a good job with the conversion too. I also like too photograph falls in the rain. I could see dodging some of the water to bring out the tones even more. Good job handling the exposure too. Cheers

My laptop, being a high-contrast scene has this looking good. If you get comments that it looks a little flat, increase the contrast and the textures pop out quite nicely.

Thanks for the great comments! And Tony,, TY for pointing that out. My monitor is also high contrast so maybe I can reset a bit and repost later.
