Artist's Comments

I've taken into account some of the critique I've received for [link] I've saturated the greens slightly, removed the square crop and tried to keep the main subject balance off centre.

Let me know what you think of this version compared to the original. I'm liking the critique feature very much and it's nice to hear your feedback.

St Nectan's Kieve, Cornwall, UK

I'm not 100% with you on this. I'd prefer to see the left foreground a bit brighter - from the arch to the waterline f the waterfall, and the pool at the bottom.The top left highlights are also a bit bright and draw the eye away too much. Perhaps an DHRi; photo 1 of the waterfall, photo 2 of the arch and right-hand side, and photo 3 of the top left area. Otherwise, I like the feeling of tranquility of the image with its greens and muted colour in the pool. The detail in the moss and the grass on the top of the arch is wonderfully sublime.

Much better composition of the falls. The square crop left me wanting more...
Like the saturation boost in this one too. I would maybe burn back the brighter top left a little to blend it in to the rest of the shot as it is a little distracting.
Detail is good, not O.T.T and the water motion is at a level that doesnt over power the rest of the image and is depth.
The upper falls are also quite bright so if you do re visit the image maybe burn that down too a little or duplicate it in PS and make an adjustment layer and over lay etc etc...
Otherwise its easily the best shot of the Glen on DA.
Well done you.

This really is a hard choice, the top left yellow throws me some, but damn this is beautiful!

I agree. That's why I originally cut it since it's slightly distracting. We were blessed with sunshine that day but the result was the harsh light there.

You feeling better now?

Still under the weather, slowly but surely getting there

Thank you. I'm not sure which I prefer yet... :hmm:
:iconeagleeye666666:
I prefer this one, about the sunlight at the top. I have to agree that i understand now why you cropped it. But I do like this one here more! cuz now you are getting a more broad view of the scenery, where the light on the green stone wall is coming from for example. As well for the water, on the other shot is just appears.

Other point is here you can also see what kind of weeather conditions you had there. I thought about an dark/cold/rainy day. :) lolz :D

Just my thoughts. This here is my fav! :)
