Thanks for posting, Myer, but your image is quite small. It would be nice to see it bigger to give it a proper viewing. The scene is classic Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone. The snow in the lower-left is a nice touch...as is the single pine along the Yellowstone river. My only thought about composition is that perhaps it's a little tight along the top with the falls...but maybe my thoughts would change if I viewed it bigger.

Hi Myer, Glad you resized the image since it was showing very small. The image looks a bit soft to me probably due to shooting at F5. I would suggest shooting scenics at a higher f stop. The falls and flow are framed nicely but would have preferred the tree not merging with the water....

I like the colours. I also noticed the tree merging with the water and I suppose a step to the right risks having another potential merge issue with the water fall. Nice shot. Dave

I liked the composition. Nice flow to the image. Little more room on top will help. I think the colors are a little more saturated than they actually are. Snow adds a lot IMO. Its a beautiful place.

one more thing...isn't that the Lower falls and not the Upper?

By the way this is the lower falls a 308' drop.. Colors seem a bit much
