Sheila and I are currently on a two-month tour through the NW, Canada and on to Michigan's UP. I thought I'd send you a shot from a couple days ago. This is one of those "impossible to capture in one frame" images from Silver Falls SP (OR). I combined the best of five images within Photomatix Pro. This is a shot of South Falls within a short walk of the lodge. To give you some perspective, observe the people along the trail just behind the 177-foot tall falls!
What I like best about this picture is that, while waterfalls are mostly designed to be dominant in an image, in this case, the trees are the dominant element and the falls are secondary. This seems to enhance the depth (or three-dimentionality) of the picture.
What do you think?
Note: I've been sending out a single picture per day to a limited distribution during this tour and if anyone wishes to be added, let me know...
I just noticed the wind must have caught the leaves as they are in differing positions for the various exposures - well call this an ABSTRACT, then! Ha!

Like the composition, and don't even mind the leaves, but it seems pretty flat to me. Maybe a boost in midrange contract would help?
