Hi Ling Ling. Another interesting photograph from you. The original is quite misty, but the colours are natural. I don't know if you use LightRoom, but there is a dehaze function there that may take away the mistiness. Your processed image seems to have a lost of harsh blue /aqua colours. Could you try to tone them down a bit if the dehaze doesn't work? The brichgt coloured object in the top right is also eye catching. You did really well at removing the people, are you able to remove that bright object too? The area you have photgraphed looks very peaceful and you have captured that well.   Posted: 08/04/2026 06:13:39

Hi Ling Ling, this is really beautiful!!! But I like the original a lot better - for the coloring, crop, detail, etc. I think if you go back to the original, then denoise and increase the saturation of the greens a bit, it'd be perfect!   Posted: 08/05/2026 15:20:52

This is a really nice shot. You have done a good job removing the people. I like your crop. My suggestions would be to clone out the floating leaves in the bottom left hand corner which catch the eye, also the red & white striped tape in the top left hand corner. Finally, the sky is a bit blown out and some detail could be recovered using the highlights slider and a bit of dehaze in Lightroom.   Posted: 08/07/2026 19:51:30

Hey Ling Ling. I like your image. At first I thought the white balance was off, but warming it up just made the waterfall yellow. I used some de haze like Andrew suggested and some clarity. and highlights. I liked it better. I tried to sharpen but it made things worse. I did burn the area on the right that seemed to be a little blown out, but the left side I left because it was probably more like it really was. Maybe. Nice image.   Posted: 08/09/2026 03:47:44

Hi Ling Ling - lovely spot and I think the sun is the star (no pun) of the show. I agree with the comments about the dehaze and the saturation. I wonder if you have an opportunity to play with the crop some more as well? The current composition feels more about the pool and the grotto. The overexposed sky in the upper right also draws the eye away from the very compelling (I think) shadows and patterns of the main waterfall on the left. I very much like the sweep of trees at the top and how the sun comes through them on the left side. With permission - I took a stab at playing with a rather drastic crop -   Posted: 08/09/2026 18:59:01
