Beneath Sahalie

Sahalie Falls on the McKenzie River in Oregon.

I like the various curves in the image, and how they are enhanced by the flow of the water.

I agree with Paulo but the HDR-like toning is too much for me. I think that with more restraints (in PP), this shot would be better.

Agreed.

Agreed.

Same here.

Sahalie Falls is a beautiful place, isn't it? I visit it often.

A couple straight raw converts.  I don't think the detail enhancement or topaz clarity is actually helping the first image.  I agree it looks strange on web at this size.  I've been struggling with white balance on this image, I suppose at the end of the day it's just personal preference.  But in your opinions is this better cooler or a little warmer?

The last one is the best for me !

I love the lines and curves in this image but I find the lower right corner a little distracting. I am not sure if it is too sharp or if it is too bright that my eyes are drawn to that more than they follow the curves.
