Comment by Kathy:
Thanks for the critiques. I had wondered about editing it more, but was afraid of noise and over-saturation (should have listened to my hunch!)

If you bumped up the contrast a bit, this would be less washed out and have more pop.

Nice photo. but for advanced editing the contrast should have been a bit higher. looks like a haze over the photo.

More saturation and increased hilights would make this image pop.

At the Edge of the Roar

Comment by Kathy:
Thanks for the comments - almost forgot I entered it. The image definitely was a stretch (especially, for anyone who has never experienced NF. One often hears waterfalls long before they come into view.) Donald - loved your memory. JD, I wasn't sure if it was sharp enough - glad you chimed in on the focus issue.

Cool but really no focus anywhere..

Aha! I see the rainbow in the bottom left corner. Do I get a treasure? My favorite place to be. I held hands with someone who is dear to me here for the first time. Love the movement of water we can't see. That mist keeps hiding so much water flow. Very quaint tourist scene but my first thought was not roar or sound. I love the upper right corner ledge of the fall. Good luck with the challenge.

Thanks for the helpful (very!) comments, Everyone. I had done a similar photo a few years ago (picnic table, early morning, checkered cloth) that came out better. You nailed all the flaws of this version on the head.

I missed the part about it being a "Stock" shot until it was too late - and then, rushed to make the deadline. No excuses - just an explanation. :>] Good learning experience! Thank you. K

stock photos shouldn't show brands.
