Here is another 'work-over' , using CR and PS. I have visited Rock Island many times in past years, and there are always water areas for prime shooting. This is simple editing, although I did run it through topaz details for enhancing the details.

Hey all! It is my pleasure to bring you a new pic this week to make your own. One of the most beautiful state parks in TN is Rock Island. Lots of beautiful waterfalls and scenic spots. (there IS a waterfall in this pic ;) This pic is one I took with my daughters Canon a couple of years ago and did not get the lighting just right but I believe you guys and gals can bring it out with a little creative editing. Have fun with it!

Please feel free to download the image presented here and edit it anyway you think is appropriate. Color shifts, composites, black and white conversions, crops...Whatever you feel the image needs. When you have finished your edit, please post it in this thread. Edits will be accepted until Thursday at 9pm Eastern Time. At that time no more edits will be accepted and we will start the voting. Thank you all for your participation.

I had a hard time with this one. I was having fits with the shaded area on the right, so I decided to introduce a shadowy figure. We'll see if anyone likes it.

BW edit in LR. went more simplistic,heavy crop and tried to utilize the zone system of Ansel Adams. I'd probably try again and go tighter and closer to the big rocks in the center. would try to use a triangle and rule of odds compositionally. That said, not sure if I achieved much!!!! updated with second edit

This is sooo good Jim - love how you emphasized the waterfalls and love what you and Don did with the clouds!

I like your sun flair Don. I tried the same thing a couple of days ago but lost my patients.
The major improvements on mine were opened shadows, whites and increased exposure. I did a mid tone luminosity mask to brighten the mid tones. The sky is the same but I added the clouds with a white cloud brush.
