Great Falls

[tchuanye]

Was there at the Great Falls last week, to take some landscape.

I just got a new LCD screen. So do let me know if it looks too dark. It looks different from my notebook, so I dunno which is correct. Thanks!

Sony A550

#1: Great falls
F9, 1/500, ISO400, 70-200mm


#2: Wider view. This has HOM inside, but I thought it was good to show scale.
F20, 1/50s, 17-50mm


#3: Small falls
F9, 1/500 ISO400, 70-200mm

hi hi! you shot these on virginia side?

#3 is my favorite. #1 is nice too but i thought having a bit less of the vegetation may be better. i do find the pics slightly dark. btw, what's HOM?

i have visited great falls a few times & find it really difficult to capture due to the rock formations & the white water of the rapids. i often get overexposed waters

yes, slightly dark and blue in my monitor ...

#3 is ! Looked like an awesome place to be!

WK - HOM = hand of man......ie a man-made subject.

Wow ChuanYean, thats some nice rocks!!! I love the sense of scale and do not mind it one bit. In fact, its a good choice to have the HOM in.

Looks a bit too contrasty and slighting bluish on my monitor.
