Its been a long winter so I thought it was time to play with the big stopper. Thoughts and comments for improvements. To bad for the power lines and the tree smack dab in the middle.

I think you've already provided a self-criticism. Overall, it's not a compelling image to my eye. Something might pop out if you explored different angles.

Waterfall looks good from the big stopper however I am drawn to the tree at center. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing really. I kind of like the look of that wintry, skeletal tree. Powerlines detract more than anything for me. Do you have a color version?

Thanks for sharing!

haha, that's color!?! ;-)a

I'm not usually a fan of a white vignette, but that actually works ok for me and I think I like it best of all three.
