[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
We were hiking around in a forest, looking for a place to swim. We were very impressed when we found this powerful waterfall. I catched the person contemplating and relaxing in front of the loud, heavy but fast, falling water. Even if I believe that the darkness is OK, I think that I should change the lighting a litle bit; I tried on Photoshop, but couldn't really get a good result, so I left the photo untouched (except for the frame).

I like this a lot, Artur. The lighting is very nice, and you've done a good job with the composition. The figure with her (?) arms up looks very relaxed and as though she is enjoying herself, or perhaps, as you say, is deep in contemplation. This is a beautiful spot that you found! I hope you go back again. :)

Good work,
Gayle

Hi, Artur, great contrast between stress and relax. Impressing view.I think the light of course can be better but I like that the person were dark, it provides anonimity and contrast with the white water.

Nice dreamy capture. Your composition is great and the person adds a lot to the mood of the picture. The lighting is all right I think. Maybe you could push the contrast a bit but then you'd loose some of the details in the rocks. Good work.

The silhouette works perfectly in this case, Artur! I love this image, it's very peaceful and the black frame accentuates it.

Nice post!

Lovely serene shot. Good composition and lack of post processing is fine here we still have this picture with the white of the water and detail of the glistening rock. Nice work. I just realized you're only 19..impressive. I wish I had started at 19 but hey I'm still young I guess (29 ain't too old right?) :)

Je ne vois pas pourquoi tu voulais changer la lumière, elle est parfaite ici pour donner l'impression de mouvement, de chaleur et d'humidité du lieu.
Et le point de viue choisi est parfait, la personne a l'air d'être dans l'eau, sur un point fort de la vue, c'est très bien fait!
Bravo!
Claude
