Challenge: Ansel Adams II (Advanced Editing VII*)
Camera: Canon EOS-40D
Lens: Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM
Location: Charny (QC), Canada
Date: Jan 17, 2009
Aperture: F/9
ISO: 100
Shutter: 1/500
Galleries: Landscape, Black and White
Date Uploaded: Jan 19, 2009

 Taken at the falls in Charny (QC) at the end of one of the coldest week ever recorded here. Temperatures as low as -33C at nights and as high -24C during daytime were recorded during the week. These low temperature contributed to provide this really icy view of the falls. The photo was taken in a relatively warm temperature of -19C in the afternoon.

No filters used. Adjusted with levels and curves only. Some distractive very bright pixels due to specular reflections on snowflakes near rock removed using clone-stamp.

Martin.

Magnificent. The tracks, the sunlit patch, the incredible detail in the distant cliff, nice thirds. Should do well!
