Lighting wasn't the best, and I blew out some of the water highlights.

    I like 3 and 4 the best, did you have a circular polarizer? I like seeing the rocks through the water, but if you didn't have a c.p., I wonder if one would have taken out the waterfall reflection if the angles are right.
    Yeah, if you recognize the avatar, new user name.

    Yea, I shot these with a CPL. It allowed me to remove the reflections from the foreground, really showing the rocks however I did not see if different angles would also remove the waterfall reflection. Maybe something to try next time.

    Beautiful shots! I was up in this area in May and only made it to Multnomah and Bridal Veil falls. Beautiful area for sure. Thank you for sharing.
