Aysgarth Falls

[Jock]

We visited Aysgarth Falls at the weekend and of course several photographs were taken.

This is one I can't quite make my mind up with - I know I could have removed more branches, but on the other hand, I kinda' like them in there.

Opinions please!

Jock, I like the picture as it is and that is how you saw it. I am always reluctant to remove this and that from a photo as I like to take the picture as I see it. However, I know that different members have their own opinions on these matters.

I like it the scene, I would be tempted to use a tripod, variable ND filter and some long exposure. But nicely done

I like the branches - gives a frame to the falls.

I think a slightly lower camera position and a bit to the right might have been my choice to clear the branches from the rock.

That's easy to say but often not so easy to do.

Re: Aysgarth Falls

Sorry Jock but for me its just not working - the rock looks interesting with the moss / waterfall and if the image will handle a large crop my interest would be towards that

Thanks for the feedback.

I really must use the tripod and my ND filters more although I'm not a fan of "soft" water - it would have been interesting to do a comparison with this one!

Two days with a tripod strapped to my backpack certainly had me aching but was so worth it. I'd not go all out milky with this shot, just a hint of blur would make a huge difference.
