Sorry to say so, but I find the overlaid copyright notice so annoyingly distracting that I cannot enjoy the photo much at all
Hi JakeFor me I'd have got down into the water, made more of a feature of the falls, which would also have removed the path to the left which catches my eye.
Purple colour cast is a shame, is that from filters?
Not a bad shot by any means, water flow looks good, but a bit blown in the whites.
This is my shot from the same pool, if you're interested - https://www.flickr.com/photos/jaketurner92/9623481744/in/set-72157635290339912
Yeah I thought that may be the case. If you do decide to carry on landscaping I can highly recommend Lee filters! The Hitechs are supposed to be good also!Hi Jake
Thanks for commenting, The colour cast probably is from the filters, they were only cheap ones I bought off Ebay last minute before the trip up to Skye, maybe I should invest some decent ones
That's a lovely shot Jake, If I hadn't been with my girlfriend & the dog I would have got closer to water, lol
Cheers
Pete
It's fine doggel, I'm not offendedApologies, maybe I was a bit grumpy when I posted that comment, but it is a bit too prominent imo. That is such a lovely scene, and you have captured it in such lovely light & colour, and with such nice depth of field- just seems a shame to impose such a large message on it
No Richard, I think it's due to the dodgy cheap filters that bought just before my trip to Skye sadly :-(Just a question about the sky, it's more of a purple than a hue I would expect from a sunset/rise. Was this added in post processing using the gradient tool? Other than the sky colour I like the image a lot.
Sorry pjm1, I didn't realise the colour was that bad :-(I'd definitely (and politely) suggest a monitor calibration then... it's very purple where I'm sitting! The saturation throughout is pretty heavy on my screen.
Don't get me wrong, it's a better photo than I could take but I feel it's suffered because of the processing rather than having been improved by it.
LolDefinitely on my screen, Peter. The sky is still really quite purple, but at least it's not jumping out at me screaming "DAIRY MILK, DAIRY MILK" any more.
And the river is now river coloured, rather than Thomson Holiday Brochure "Aqua"
In all seriousness though, I think you've taken a good photo and a lot of the time good photos need a gentle nudge rather than anything more substantial. Yours is good enough to stand on its own, for me!
