Season Opener
Anxiously awaiting the peak of green to hit shortly. This little grouping of skunk cabbage caught my eye. The falls were running really heavy as most of them are right now. The exposure could probably use some work as its a bit hot. What do you all think?

I like the composition but I do think the dark areas at the bottom of the cliff could be opened up a bit more. Nice find.

I like the comp and the perspective. I perceive Skunk Cabbage as being more lemony yellow (a little greener). The light actually looks a little flat. Good potential with a little more processng, I think.

Nice perspective and composition. I agree that the light look a little flat. I think with a little localized contrast work this could be awesome.

I love the smell of skunk cabbage, i use to carry a chunk around in the car during the spring. Everybody thought i was high.... literally. Anyway, i also think the falls without the skunk cabbage in it stands looking pretty good. Love the mood of it alone. :)

nice diagonal balance between the waterfall and the skunk cabbage
