smaller images always look a bit darker than the full-size version. it's the same optical illusion that makes a paint chip look darker in the store than the same color applied to your entire wall.
this image would benefit from a bit of selective brightening, or perhaps some shadows/highlights adjustment to brighten up the left side... there are some beautiful blues and golds reflected in the stream...
I appreciate the feedback. Not sure which program(s) I would use for "selective" brightening. Most of the software I'm familiar with do those things on a global scale. What program(s) would you suggest. I'm not a pro, so cheap or free is a good thing.
