Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Postby thehikingdude on Wed Mar 15, 2006 5:18 pm

Columbia River Gorge. Note the tunnel that was blasted out to continue going beyond the waterfall.

What a location... Love it...

I can see some really nice spots down there at the creek in front of wet mossy rocks with some creamy small water falls leading to the big mother at the back... Great scene... Great idea with the tunnel too, means not defacing with a walk-way or hand-rail thing I spose...

Nice spot...

makes me feel like I am about to fall over :shock:

Great spot but agree the comp might could improve, would say that it is most likely the angle the lens was used

That is what I thought as well. Your position must have been a little precarious Dude. Very nice image :D

I agree, the comp isn't that great - but from where I was at I didn't have a lot of options even with my 10-20 lens. I'm headed back this coming Friday for a 3-day backpacking trip. I doubt I will bring my tripod but I hope to get the bottom of the fall so I can get the whole thing in a single picture. Getting down will be easy, getting back up will be the hard part. It's actually very steep, but hard to tell from the picture.

Thanks for the comments!

Here's a few others from the same hike:

Notice anything different about this one?
