Waterfall Pictures Tips On what else to do to them in lightroom?

[Skippy599]

Well i took these pictures a while ago and my friend wants them in a book of nature pictures and such she's making, so i was wondering what I should do.

thanks.

I wouldn't change a thing on the first one but I would suggest you burn in or clone out that white spot on the far left of the second. That's it as far as I am concerned. I like 'em both! :thumbup: :thumbup:

they both are nice compositionally, but with waterfalls you have to be extra careful not to overexpose the white water which it seems you have done in both shots. maybe you can recover some of it. Also it appears there is a blue/purple cast to the water, something I see a lot of with this kind of photography. My camera's white balance gets fooled, too, sometimes. the second one looks like a good candidate for a monochrome conversion. try it and see.

Wow, I can totally see the blue/purple in the second one now that it is pointed out. I'm still learning too! :)

Same here. I see 'new' stuff all the time. It's keeping track that's hard.

I like both pictures, the composition of which is really good. I can't really add anything to what's been said already apart from the rock at the bottom of the second pic is a bit distracting as it's just chipping into the frame. Maybe it could be removed completely or the whole of it shown.

Yes, I know it's purple-ish, I noticed after i uploaded it, the recovery is maxed out on the two shots already but the purple has to go your right, as for the white spot i didnt notice thanks for all the tips and i will try the B&W and see how it looks :) i just don't know if it will be too "busy" for black and white or not, thanks again:D
