Waterfall Abstract
by Nate Zalik
Hi everyone. I created this photo during a recent trip to Ricketts Glen State Park in PA. Two things I liked about the scene - 1) how dark the rocks behind the falls were; I used a polarizer to enhance that effect, 2) the many small cascades of water that this section of the waterfall contained.
I used my Canon 7D with a 17-55mm lens set at 55mm and a polarizing filter on a tripod. Exposure was 1/2 second at f/8. I enhanced the contrast and sharpened the image in Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop CS5.
I considered posting this in the landscape forum, since it didn't require any extensive manipulation, but my intent was for this to be more of an abstract image. I think it looks sort of like a scratchboard piece of art.
I'm interested in receiving any feedback, either positive or negative. Thanks!
