The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
Here’s another look down into the Yellowstone River Canyon. This one emphasizes the river and it’s motion thanks to the white water and minimal colors in the canyon walls.
Specific Feedback
I like how the white water in the river turned out here.

Another great Yellowstone Image Mark. This one really highlights the river and the white water rapids. The colors look good to me and the light works well. I’m enjoying the concept of this. I don’t remember if I’ve even seen the Yellowstone river running horizontally through scene before and I like the angle of this.
This might be just personal taste but there seems to be quite a lot of contrast making this a bit busy. I wonder if reducing the contrast a bit would soften the overall feel of the image and make it a little bit less busy? Again maybe just me as I tend to like soft contrast so take this with a grain of salt. I might also add a little of canvas to the bottom if you have it to provide more of a base for the image to sit on if that makes sense. It feels a bit top heavy. Nice perspective Mark.
Hi Mark,
This is another wonderful look at Yellowstone Canyon. It does an excellent job of showcasing the power and the movement of the Yellowstone River. You have just enough of the canyon walls to let the viewer enjoy those lovely earthtones and the diagonal placement of the water works quite well. I too could see the contrast lowered just a touch, but that is just my personal preference and not a critique. Very nicely done.
