Moss Brae Falls

This is a crop of an area of Moss Brae falls near Mt Shasta and Dunsmuir area. The weather was terrible but managed to pop off a few shots of the fall with black and white at the time. Any questions, comments or critique very much welcomed

Gosh, I sure miss the trips north to these areas. Lots of waterfalls and water in general in the PNW area. Although I have been to Mt. Shasta and this general area I do not recall being to the Dunsmuir area at all.
From the sounds of the weather during this capture I'm sure your choice for using B&W worked out for the best here. I'm not sure why you had cropped this one, but if the intent was to narrow down the perspective or eliminate unwanted items this seems to work fine. Overall it does seem to be a very tight composition as a result of the crop.

This doesn't work for me. The branch coming in from the left is distracting and I don't see enough detail of the falls to interest me.

I kind of like peering through that fg branch into that veil of falling water in the background. Although I might favor an even tighter crop eliminating the pools of water at the bottom for an even more abstract scene. Maybe even a little contrast boost to the bottom of the falls might enhance the nice vertical lines captured here. Nice to see something a bit different than the norm.

Hey Don, What do you mean bad wheather? Too much rain? Usually a scene like works out very well in overcast weather. I've seen a lot of shots from this fall in color. Hope you got some of the those the moss is always so vibrant green. The branch looks fine. You could of maybe shot another with the branch on top of the fall too. The bottom does seem a little tight but for some reason most people crop shots pretty tight here. Wish I could been there to see this fall, it always impressive. Some playing w/ the channel mixer or other options might help give the moss a punch in contrast here in the bw version. Where you shooting film on this visit?

PS, sorry for the overload of questions.

I've never seen this done in B&W before, Raymond. It works.
