The rocks in the top left are blown a bit, but should I bother to bump to colors and try to bring more color into the shot? Also, any composition ideas for what I could have done differnt, because the more I look at it, the waterfall is just about dead center in this shot. Adam

I am at work and have no means for good editing, but maybe a local contrast USM of 25/30/1. I don't think the blown parts of the rock on the left are bad. Mike, The Keeper of the Archive

sugarzebra Cream of the Crop  More info | Mar 29, 2006 13:13 | #3 This is an excellent shot. It is probably worth selecting the over exposed section on the left and adjusting the colour balance & saturation. The people on the beach certainly establish the magnitude of the falls....it must have been quite a sound as well as sight. Scott

Added contrast with usm. Sharpened with usm. Cropped. Framed. Would probably work better with the full sized image. You beat me to it. I was going to go home and give it a go with your script. I am sure yours would have turned out better anyway. Mike, The Keeper of the Archive

Wow, the frame looks nice! Needless to say that my editing skills are lacking but I will have to give a few of the adjustments a try when I get home to see how well they work on the full sized image. I originally liked the rock in the shot to give a bit of foregorund, but the crop does look better overall without it there. Adam

He wrote a few scripts and has them available for everyone with a minimal donation. I highly recommend them for web posting. You will see lots more on here. Mike, The Keeper of the Archive
