Title: Peavine Falls
Post by: Richard Pearlman on December 28, 2014, 11:34:20 pm

For the past couple days, it has been raining heavily in my area, so I knew that this waterfall would be at its maximum flow. My main concern with this image is the blur of the water. I feel like I have blurred it too much, especially the waterfall, but I am uncertain. Any comments or critiques are appreciated.

Right for me.

If it was longer, the river's current would have been attenuated too much.

Here we "see" it.

Have a Nice Day.

Lovely. Think you got the water just right.
Looks great in black and white

To me the velocity of the water flow is very well preserved - the adjective "torrent" definitely springs to mind.
A very nicely captured image and the B&W treatment brings out the winter starkness and gloomy light conditions very well.
My critical contribution would be to suggest that congratulations are in order!

Works for me, some nice texture to the water in the FG.
