Plunge

I photographed this, on Tioga Rd, Yosemite NP. I shot this at mid-day and the lighting was poor. I attempted to salvage the image by using Viveza and ColorEfex Pro. Any c/c's are welcomed.

Excellent handling. the water looks like it is moving, but the whites are under control and I think you got all out of the darks you could. I like the diagonal movement of the water and the blocky rocks. Simple and strong! :toast:

I agree with Phil that this is a very strong composition and the water is handled very well.

A strong and consistent composition to me, Floyd, well anchored by the rocks. Perfect exposure of the falls and just enough details in the shadows to my eye.

Nice abstract. Could see trying to get more texture out of the foreground rock. Love the colors in the back.

I agree with all previously made compliments and have no suggestions for changes
or ways in which to improve the image.
