    Default Moody Waterfall

    A waterfall from a sweet location (Vila de Rei) in the center of Portugal. I love waterfalls and i`ve shot several from the water to explore the compositions, just as i did here.

    Hi Luis, A sweet waterfall scene but the greens are a bit over the top I feel, especially those in the shadow RHS of the falls..

    Agreed with the green and I think the Orton effect is a little bit cheesey here.

    Hi Luis, I agree with Don and Adhika here...it is a beautiful scene just needs to be processed to look more natural...if youare not opposed to it I would also suggest cloning out the leaves that blurred in the foreground water.

    Luis I agree with what others have said - just too vibrant and both the yellow and blue channels have been overcooked for my tastes. You see the blue creeping into the water as well.

    Thanks everyone for the feedback. I do have a "thing" for vibrante colors, but i pushed a bit too hard here.

    The repost is much better when it comes to teh colors, I would also suggest toning the brightness in the left hand side of the image about a stop.
