Everybody's Christine

This is the typical view of Christine Falls in MRNP from the lower viewpoint. Everybody who has been there with a camera has this shot. Almost direct front lighting so this may be a little flat. How do the colors look? The original file seemed washed out so I boosted the colors some in most channels. Is it too blue?

Thanks for looking and check out the larger version if so inclined.

Wonderful intimate scene and I like the natural colors of the rock

Great comp! Maybe bump the saturation up, I think the greens could use some pop against the gray rocks. Otherwise, great shot!

Very nice image Bruce. This doesn't appear overly blue to me. I agree with Jake about boosting the saturation just a bit. I could also see cropping out the rocks above the bridge to simplify the composition a bit.

This is lovely, I think the flat light and cool toning suit this shot very well.

I think it's beautiful as is Bruce... of course personal preference in color/contrast, etc. recognized. Lovely scene!

I love how you've chosen to use the bridge to frame the top of the scene. Awesome!
