Challenge: Free Study 2007-12 (Advanced Editing V)
Camera: Canon EOS-40D
Lens: Canon EF 17-40mm f/4.0L USM
Location: Mosfellsbær, Iceland
Date: Dec 29, 2007
Aperture: f/22
ISO: 400
Shutter: 2 sec
Date Uploaded: Dec 31, 2007

Taken on a short two hour walk with a photo club that I have been a member of since it was founded in 1999. It was nice to get out with the camera to shoot something as I haven't been out with my camera for almost four weeks, I've only shot few family shots for that time, capturing memories of course..

After converting this image in Lightroom and after a little bit work in Photoshop I converted it to black and white using the Channel mixer with suiting contrast work using curves and dodge and burn after that.

More of my b&w work here.

Very pretty. A little hot in the upper left, but a very mice image anyway.

Nice shot, but I wonder if a tint of (duotone) colour would have brought it to life more? Perhaps a slight blue?

I've been here. You've captured a wonderful photo! Light, motion, composition, focus, ... wonderful.

I like your choice of B&W for this; draws my eye more immediately to the contrast in texture between the ice and flowing water.

Very pretty falls, probably would've done well in the Ice challenge too.

I'll let you in on a little secret - I hate waterfall shots. That said, I really like this one. :-)

Breathtaking! I love the clarity and contrast in this shot. Shame the sky wasn't any more interesting on the day but nonetheless a fabulous shot.
