About the Image(s)
anon R5. EOS + 24mm (RF24-70). 1/1600sec, F/13, ISO 1250
This helicopter shot was taken at the end of the wet season. It is one of the Iconic waterfalls in the region. At ground level, when we walked around to the falls, it was impossible to capture them in one shot.
I processed it in Lightroom using Topaz Photo, exported it to PS, and used my Les Walkling action to reattach highlights.

Brian, no question, a helicopter provided the best view of these waterfalls. I like the original too, e.g., the darker green in the river. It is easy to overexpose waterfalls and blowout details. The small most distant waterfall lost some details. The others are lovely. There is an accidental dot of green in the left upper quadrant of the image. This has happened to me a couple times during touching-up. No worries.   Posted: 02/05/2025 01:48:57
Hi Charles.
Thanks for pointing that out. I went back to the finished original to see what i had done and the green dot wasn't there. I then exported again as export as. I adjusted to meet the PSA upload size standard and saved it again.I've attached the new file here and it doesn't have the green dot. Does anyone have an idea on what happened?   Posted: 02/05/2025 02:40:04

Brian, amazing shot! I really like the rainbow to the right of the lower fall!
What I really like about this photo is there is it appears to be a simple shot of a series of falls along the river. But the more I look at the photo the more I see! The rainbow, the texture of the rocks in the canyon to the left, the rock face colors and more!
Cool frame!   Posted: 02/22/2025 04:07:38
