Description

I was having a good day of Photography when I found this scene. It seemed like a nice bonus shot to end the day on. The center rock is what drew me in. The recent rain gave it a glorious shine that I could not ignore.

Specific Feedback

Composition. I fiddled with the crop on this for a while and ended up feeling that a square crop with my main rock slightly off-center worked. (Question)

Technical Details

Canon R5
35 mm
2.2 sec @ f 16 ISO 100
In camera Black and Wite

Lightroon to doge and burn the water, to make the “rapids” stand out.

This is nice Todd. Dummy me that I am, I would have instinctively slapped on a polarizer and totally lost that nice sheen. The composition works great with the strong diagonal line of rocks and the ss creates a nice water flow through the image. :clap:

Todd !!! You were having a great day. I love the dodging and burning you used to bring this B&W image out. Works great. You can feel the movement and really like it in B&W. My favorite format. B&W gives the image really nice tone and the water really pops out !!! Really Nice !!!
