East side of Mt Hood. Not too much wind, so the mist was manageable with lots of lens wiping. Canon 5DMk2, 16-35mm at 20mm. Iso 800, f22, 1/15th sec.

The light streaking through the mist from the falls is a fine catch, Daniel. It adds a nice touch of magic to this sweet view. The moss covered boulders below the falls show up much better in the larger view, which lets them contribute nicely. There are two small flare spots that you may or may not want to clean up, one in the middle near the top of the falls and the other in the outflow.

Great sunburst Daniel. Love the play of the light on the mist and the smooth water and soft green of the moss below. Nice overall balance too.

Lovely capture of the light rays from the sunburst filtering through the misty falls. It is very well captured and processed and you have used the tree canopy well to temper the power of the sun to mitigate the effects of flare.

The mist makes it a special capture. Those sunburst rays seem a little too sharp for me, though it may be the efffect you are going for. I might try to soften them a little to be in more in line with the softness of the image as a whole.

Beautiful. Really well done. Even without the sun star. My favorite parts are (1) the foggy mist on the left that encapsules such a large part of the image and (2) the sunlight on those mossy rocks near the bottom of the frame. Both contribute so much to this image which without them would be your standard waterfall shot (the kind I take). Great job.

Waht else can I add? This has everything you could want in a waterfall shot, AND your shutter speed choice was excellent, too. Nice work!

A fine image. I would have been very excited to get a shot like this.

Fabulous shot, Daniel. I love the amount of spray you caught. Last time I was there I had remote trigger in one hand and lens cloth in the other the whole time. You still got some blue in the sky too! I'm curious about whether you did a blend or had a grad filter to manage the sky and foliage.

Great light Daniel. I find some of the sticks and elements on the right edge of the frame to be distracting though so perhaps a slight crop would help keep the eye on the main subject.

Very well done. The processing looks great. I agree with Richard regarding the bits on the right edge. Rather than crop, a little judicious cloning would fix that easily.
