 This is my third try at this waterfall. It has always been overcast and dull. This time I decided to try something new. I made a 3 minute exposure where I lit up the waterfall with a LED flashlight while exposing. I liked how much contrast that brought into the picture.

Just to explain my shot: it has limited editing. After simple RAW converton I did some dodge/burn on the waterfall and some color adjustments plus noise reduction because of the noisy long exposure. Other than that the editing is minimal, using a flashlight and long exposure was what made this image as it is.

Thanks for the comments, they are helpfull in a way that its not good to post an image that looks overprocessed even if it is not.

Good shot, a bit overprocessed for me though.

Beautiful image. But it almost feels TOO perfect to me--like overediting maybe?
