![Gold Star Critiquer/Gold Star Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 680 W: 67 N: 323]](http://i1.trekearth.com/misc/g-g-g.gif) (1064) | The Niagara Region in Ontario has a lot more to offer than one giant waterfall and gambling. Vineyards and orchards, lovely homes and history, and just a few minutes from anywhere is the great outdoors. The Ball's Falls area near Jordan is a lovely nature walk, and historical as well, preserving buildings and stoneworks from the old mills in the area.
This is the lower falls, the water coming from the Niagara Escrpment, and flowing down the Jordan River to Lake Ontario. Crystal clear.
All comments and critiques on this photo are welcome.

As time flows like a river to the sea, life moves on, and so many things must be done. I do enjoy this little photo hobby, and some times too much, since it takes time away from many of the other things I should be doing. This will be my last post. For a while, perhaps. Many thanks to all who have looked through my photos and left a comment behind. May your heart laugh like the brook when it trips and falls over stones on its way. Be well, and do good.

A different crop & contrast

Michelle,
I cropped off some of the top and the right side to focus more on the rapids - as a lovely diagonal.
Ran autocontrast, adjusted brightness +5 and contrast another +10 and increased saturation +5.
I did some post-pro USM sharpening (Luko's 5 steps) and resized to your original size.
This brought out more of the fall itself and more of the water droplets oozing from between the stones. What do you think?
Best regards,
Kaj |
