It's been a long time since I posted here. A few weeks ago, I went out shooting with Jack Graham and, as a result, got some good shots and thought should post here again.
Anyway, I wanted your opinion on this different perspective of Multnomah Falls. It was actually the last shot I took of the weekend. I wasn't keen on shooting Multnomah Falls because there were too many people around, but saw this composition when driving by and asked Jack to stop. What do you think, does it work?

Yes, I like it, Joe. It sure is different from the usual view of Multnomah, so much as to not recognize it. (I mean that in a good way.) Changing the perspective a little bit if the terrain permitted would get the tall straight tree out of being in the falls. Putting it to one side or the other of the falls would accentuate the vertical feel, while now it's a little distracting to have the tree and falls overlapping like that. Still, it's a fine shot and a refreshing view of it.
I think so Joe. Unique comps without people are tough here, good job. As noted, the light really adds. The lower left corner is a little empty, compared with the rest of the photo, but I know that's hard to overcome from this location.

P.S. The beam of light is a real plus!!
