No shortage of morning sun, either. :^)<BR/><BR/>Greg, your comments are courteous and constructive, so there's no reason at all why I'd get angry. I had indeed tried converting it to B&W but decided to stay with the colour. It's subtle, but influential, although on many monitors it might not be apparent (or, worse, be distorted). It does work well as a B&W, though, and I guess viewers will differ in their preferences.<BR/><BR/>My eye constantly returns to the smooth water just before it shoots over the lip (just above and left of centre) and breaks into those long lines. Those streamers then pull my eye down, echoing the flow of the water itself. That's just how I see it (literally). Thanks again for the thoughts Greg.pohanginapetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11463792721091291063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191028737265893759.post-72111140552591268702009-02-09T11:53:00.000+13:002009-02-09T11:53:00.000+13:00Hi Pete,I think in this photo I'll also critiq...Hi Pete,<BR/>I think in this photo I'll also critique you a little :) <BR/>I hope you are not angry with me for that from my comment on your previous photo.<BR/>I think that your composition in this shot isn't attractive. There is nothing for my eye to stop at. And there is also a lack of color... maybe you should try this photo in B&W.<BR/>Warm Regards,<BR/>Greg.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191028737265893759.post-89666220640769567252009-02-08T21:50:00.000+13:002009-02-08T21:50:00.000+13:00How lovely - both the rushing water, and the thoug...How lovely - both the rushing water, and the thought of morning sun!Relatively Retiringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07648407316162715318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191028737265893759.post-12583496637054240922009-02-08T20:37:00.000+13:002009-02-08T20:37:00.000+13:00Zhoen, even the small streams can be tricky becaus...Zhoen, even the small streams can be tricky because many are so steep and rough; the swift water's so powerful it can be hard to stay upright even when it's hardly more than knee deep.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Lisa!
