...a different set of falls down Glen Etive, the kayakers are always down here when there's been rain to fill the rivers.

Played around with this trying to calm the high contrast, high angle sun, tell me if it looks wrong please, I'm still not sure.

Good morning, Neighbour.
Another fine composition under such desirable conditions and from a fine bit of the land, Dougie: the combination of winter colours, snow on the tops and sunshine all contribute to enhancing an already carefully composed shot.
Ronnie.

I agree with Ronnie here Dougie, I know this area well and the problems you have to overcome with the lighting at certain times of the day here, You have captured and presented this scene perfectly, I wish I was back there now, Very well done my friend, Bill.

The thought of tackling that in a kayak is truly terrifying, Dougie.
The image looks fine to me; it rather suggests an imminent and brutal change in the weather.

Looks perfect to me Dougie. I can't imagine kayakers going down that river, you'd think they'd be smashed to bits............Sandy

That looks like a bumpy ride, I think I'd prefer a hovercraft!
The light looks natural, unforced. Which I regard as a compliment.

The snow and and lack of strong colours tells us that this is too early in the year for that tempting looking water to be anything other than extremely cold, Dougie. A very natural look to this, as Moira pointed out. Moving, frothy water like this always seems to look as if it has suffered from oversharpening, I feel, even though it isn't the case.

To my untrained eye, it looks just wonderful Dougie! Love that peaty water tumbling over the rocks. The light looks perfect and I wouldn't guess a bit of 'fiddling' had gone on!! Smile

Looks good to me, but I only know what I like, not much about the processing stuff. I always like to see this dusting of snow on the mountains - looks like icing sugar on a cake TongueGrin. Moira

Lovely composition, Dougie. It was raining hard when I got there but i captured the Kayakers going over the falls. Will post asap. You've done a grand job, Dougie. The shadows seem a bit bloccked but then in harsh light that's inevitable.

Beautiful peaty water, nicely captured. The detail in those rocks are lovely as is the whole landscape.
