Here is the vertical version to the previously posted Furnace Falls on the Irondale River in Ontario's Haliburton Highlands.

I have one other vertical version that excludes the two birch trees on the right, less clouds above the tree and no rocks in the lower left corner, but I think this works better with the wider view.

Nikon D200
12-24mm lens at 12mm (effective focal length 18mm
f22 @ 3.6 sec
ISO 100

Look forward to comments on this version.

Hi Andrew,I like this version with the inclusion of a foreground. The water,while silky has detail. The bare tree on the left has even become more dominant which I like. I might take out the mostly cut tree on the rt (or add more of it)and bring the sky down a bit since it's not contributing much to the overall....

Thanks Dave for the comments. I was going to clone out the cut tree on the right, but thought I would leave it as is for now and see what folks think. Much appreciate your comments.

I like the image's colors and water flow, and the composition but I also think that cloning out the top of the tree on the right and removing some of the sky would improve it.

Hey Andrew,
I think this view is stronger and I do like the FG you included. Agree with right tree too but I am OK with the sky as presented. Nicely done overall!

[Andrew McLachlan]

Thanks to all for the comments. Much appreciated. I have cloned the tree out as my final step in optimizing this one.
