What kind of PP are you doing to waterfall shots

Getting the colours to pop. Where I am the greens and the browns seem to merge into each other. Our trees dont loose there leave in Autum. On my pbase site there are some earlier photos and the colours are bland. Shoot at f16 all the time tripod and filters depending on the sun.

I like using the landscape color style, it gives the waterfalls alot of pop. What levels of USM do you use

They are good calicokat, but I think they could be even better with a bit of foreground interest, which would also give some sense of scale :)

Thank you for the comment, what if there was nothing in the foreground, what do you suggest

A bit of a harsh light,much better if you visit it again for another shot.
Preferably on a cloudy day,this way you will not have many shadows to worry about.

Photographs are records of life. Pity they don't make music when you put them in a record player. :p

I am using 100, 0.3 and 1. Its unnoticeable on screen, but helps the prints a tad. I do not like too much PP
