Scourge February 14, 2006 Share Scourge Member February 14, 2006 Well, after posting some of those pics up last night I got in the mood to go out and see what I could do tonight(haven't really felt like taking pics much lately). About a 20 minute hike to the bottom of the falls I was already frozen, lol. Only hung around for about a half hour, managed to get about 10 shots. This is one of my two fav's. It was taken well after dark. Just a quick and dirty PS job, but there's not much more I need to do to it. Haven't touched any of the others yet. -George As usual, feel free to comment on it. I can always use some constructive critisism or en(dis?)couragement, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackieChan February 14, 2006 Share JackieChan GC Alumni February 14, 2006 That's a nice angle of that waterfall thingy. Nice pic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubblegum Bandit February 15, 2006 Share Bubblegum Bandit Member February 15, 2006 I really like that picture..... 100% honest though, and there's really nothing you could do about it, but I'd like it better w/o the fence up top and w/o that tree in the foreground. For some reason those two things "take something away" from the picture imo. Another thing I'm curious about.... is that ice, or is that an effect of a slow shutter speed? I love playing with shutter speed and water to get different effects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love playing with shutter speed and water to get different effects. I'm up in the air about the fence. I could go either way with it though. On one hand, it would look nicer, a little more undeveloped. On the other, it proves that there's hardly anywhere around here these days that hasn't been affected by people. I could pull the fence out quite easily in PS, but for now it stay . I completely agree with that tree being in the way though, lol. The water was flowing quite freely. It was a 90 second exposure I believe. Ok, checked the exif. 85 seconds, F8, 100iso, and it was shot with the kit lens at 18mm. I've got an ND(neutral density) filter on my list of things to buy. You can cut down the light by multiple stops without afftecting colour/image integrity with them. Excellent for bluring water in daytime shots. Thanks for the comments! -George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bubblegum Bandit February 16, 2006 Share Bubblegum Bandit Member February 16, 2006 Nice, I definately like it with the fence gone. Either you lightened it a bit as well, or my LCDs at work are really dark. It looks much lighter on my laptop for some reason. Before the tree in the foreground kinda faded in and out with the background because it looked too dark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scourge February 16, 2006 Author Share Scourge Member February 16, 2006 I only worked on the fence. No other adjustments. Guess the work monitors suck -George Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
