Cascade Fall
In our never-ending spring this year, this is an image taken about 6 weeks ago at Cascade Fall in Yosemite. I was totally drawn into all the mini cascades of this fall. All comments welcome. Best Regards.

Michael, this has a nice sort of flow the composition. The way the two upper corners flow into the scene particularly do it for me. Some highlights might be bright but maybe it's time for me to recalibrate.

Steve,
Thanks for the comments. I was just drawn into this scene for some reason. It is bright, but I'm not sure I was really looking for a huge amount of detail in the water. Thanks again. Best Regards.

Michael, I think the comp works well. Like Steve has mentioned, the highlights seem very bright here. Although, I do not detect any clipping, at least at this size. You might try to work those down a bit. :cool:

A color image...how cool. I like the way you have the two separate cascades draining into the same pool.The high contrast might work for a Bw conversion.

Thanks for the comments... Paul, I hadn't thought about a B&W conversion, but may take a look now. Thanks and best regards.
