Gorgeous falls! The longer exposure has created a really elegant effect on the water. Also there is a very nice array of colour through the scene, which also help give it its atmosphere. I think the composition is almost perfect... The only thing I can think of to improve the composition would be getting ride of the rock on the right hand side, it's distracting in my opinion. Another thing that concerns me is the lighting. I wish it was more even throughout the scene. Shoot on an overcast day, early or late afternoon for more a diffused light, rather than getting harsh highlights from the sun... although you've manged to control the highlights well here.

Great work <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />

When I first saw this image as a thumb view I thought nothing of it but somehow I clicked to view it larger and then came to notice the true emotion in this image. For starts the image being converted to black and white has really boosted that emotion with the slight overexposure of the models skin which highlights nicely with the contrast. The shallow depth of field is fantastic, great focus with such high detail in his eyes which draw you in for a closer look. I think you've pretty much nailed this shot mate, executed top notch! Well done <img src="e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />

First off I'd like to say Wow, great capture here! You have really nailed this one. The way my eyes are drawn into the field to the path way is just as if I'm right there walking through the grass. The soft subtle haze also creates a great atmosphere, making the distant background appear further than what it was I'm guessing. As for lighting you couldn't have taken this at a better time, the way the grass seems to glow with high contrast to the bottom. The sky speaks for itself fitting well with the foreground. My only concern is that the horizon could possibly go a little more to the left but now I look at it some more I think that's just where the field ends and different levels of grass. All in all I love this shot, keep up the good work <img src="e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" title=":) (Smile)" />
