Elk Park Falls

Nicely composed. I really like that bit of mist rising at the bottom.

Chuck, nice shot of the falls...Dennis keeps telling me that he wants to shoot some water falls.

Thanks Lynn & I am lucky there are several within 50 miles of where I live.

This is a very nice capture of the falls and I like that one can see the rocks on both sides which to me adds to this image.

Hello Chuck. You are so lucky to have many waterfalls close to you. You can spend all summer searching for them.

Here is my opinion on this shot:
I think the shot is cropped a bit too tight on the right. Was there something in the scene you were trying to keep out of the shot? I think a better composition would be to show more of the right side and not cut off the top of the falls.
I also see that this shot was taken with the aperture of f/4. You likely did not need a fader filter to get a silky look to the water. If it is a cloudy day I just use an aperture in the 20's to get that effect. Of course a tripod is a must as vibration reduction will not help with that long of a shutter speed needed to expose correctly.
Good luck with your waterfall hunting!

I retract what I said about the right side being cut off. I am viewing from a new laptop and it appears all the photos I view are missing the right side.....!

Hi Anne,

Yeah, I have been having that problem also. I sent Dennis a message about the new star box display on the right side.
I think that might have something to do with it. Try logging out and viewing the image again. I can see all of the image if I am logged out of the site.
It is good to see you back on the site. I hope you have been doing well.

Looks good when I log out.
