The Mist & The Mill+ rpst

Reprocessing post below:

This beautiful old waterfall and mill are located in Wayne County, PA. Earlier I had posted a more close-up shot of the side of the mill, but it put the neighboring houses into view.

While I still haven't been able to get far enough over to the right to eliminate those, this was taken a bit further back to show the length of the mill building and make the houses a bit less obvious. D60, ISO-100, one-second exposure, f-25, 20mm, CPL. Larger posted, appreciate your comments and critiques!

I like the perspective to show the mill and falls together. I usually don't like to cut a tree in half at the edge of the frame, but I think a crop to the middle of the evergreen at the top would simplify the composition and still allow you to meet your objective of showing the length of the mill building.

Nice country scene. I like the comp., but it tends to look a little over sharpened. Maybe it is just me.

I deleted the recomp, as I didn't care for it. But here I've reprocessed it a bit using John Mumaw's technique myself in Elements. Thanks for viewing both.
