This was a wet and misty place. I noticed the father and son walking back and especially the red shirt of the son. There was a flare that I had to clean up and work with burning and dodging to get it to work. I like the power of the falls and the father/son part of the image. There is a powerful, but peaceful feeling with this.

D60, no record of lens, iso or otherwise. I am guessing I took this with the 28-135 IS and at the meter. Tripod, naturally.

I know you like the father/son part of this image (and rightfully so) but I really LOVE this with the bottom part cropped off. It has an old master painting feel to it.

Jenny's crop works well. I don't like the tree in the URC.

I like the people to give the shot scale but I also like the crop suggestion as more of a pure landscape shot.

Steve, I like this as is. The humans add both scale and color. Cropping the bottom works OK too, but IMHO that makes it kind of predictable in a "classic waterfall picture" way. Showing the water exiting the frame in the LR makes it more interesting to me.
