    Gorge at Watkins Glen #2

    Another image from our outing at Watkins Glen Gorge in August. The sky was a mixture of clouds and Sun. we tried to get there about Noon to get light in the gorge. I like this image as it has the wide dripping falls on the left with the main run off centered. To me the color shows the almost tropical feel Upstate NY can have if the circumstances are right.

    1DMK2 with 17-40 @ 40. Evaluative metering at ISO 400 with EV zero and f 16 with 1 sec exposure. Tripod used leaning over the wall at the trail's edge. I cloned out 2 people on the left. Full frame with some curves, and burning on the right using a multiply mask.

    Thanks for looking. All comments are most welcome.

    What a great surprise!

    I never expected my images to be up to the standard set by the great photographers on this site. I must say a big "Thank You" to Robert Amoruso, and Fabs and Al Forns who made some suggestions on several of my images and provided some "how to" guidance. this image was certainly the recipient of this teaching.

    Thanks for the kind comment Denise.
