    Default Hogg's Falls

    One of my favorite waterfalls in Ontario found along the Niagara Escarpment in the Beaver Valley. Shot this a couple of years ago, came across it while working on a project.

    Nikon D200
    12-24mm lens @ 12mm
    ISO 100
    f22 @ 2.2 seconds
    Polarizing Filter

    Look forward to comments.

    Very nice foreground and SS. It looks just a tad oversharpened, I would prefer it a bit softer.
    Nice composition although the left side looks like it might be more interesting than the right side.

    Hi Andrew, I like the low angle which is bringing the foreground slightly above eye level. The polarizer seems to have flattened most of the highlights. Good detail in the falls with just enough room on top.
    Two things I might look at. First, there seems to be a pinkish caste to the water and secondly I would tone down the very bright area above the falls. Well framed!

    Andrew - I like the POV, comp and the soft water. I too see the slight cast. I can see why this waterfall is one of your favorites.

    TFS,
    Rachel

    Hey Andrew,
    I agree with Dave's assesment......but a few small tweaks will make this shine! Easy fixes to a very nice comp!
