Going through some shots this weekend, here is one from earlier in July. It is just past the first bridge over Calypso Cascades.

Hey, Paul, I also shot this little cascade back in July.
I like your composition with the foliage in the foreground, but I'd crop out the dead branch.

Here's my version, from a little to the right:

Nice shot Paul! I know right where that is. As long as we are posting versions, here's my version. Who's next? :biggrin:

Thanks, Bill, good advice. It really attracted me when I first saw the contrast between it and the green leaves, but it was hard to work in.

Cool shot Paul! Nice intimate feel. I agree with Bill, maybe to crop out the dead branch part. Even with that out, the rock and green leaves still make a really nice frame for the falls.

Gee, I wish I had a version. Then again, when I die and go to heaven, I'll have 72 versions waiting for me.

Nice shot, Paul, but that dead branch is a detraction, IMO.
