Gorgeous result with the pano. I'm inclined to select the first version which is a nice balance between the second (which is too dark on the left IMO) and the third, (which is a tad too light on the left and bottom center.)

Incredible detail. Congratulations.

Hi Ray, I still like the initial version of #1, it is very surreal. The light is more natural. The second one grows on you. If the gull had been a golden leaf or two you wouldn't have the interesting ripple effect on the water.

Ray,

The falls pano is really beautiful. You did a great job, and the first version works very well, and the last version also. The second one I'd probably prefer without the gull, but the water reflection patterns are well organized and interesting.

I love that shot of the falls Ray - I think the second to last version is the best because of the feeling for depth to the trees at the back of the scene just to the left of center. In the last image the added light makes this go away somewhat and it feels a little more 2 dimensional than the other versions. I often darken the trees at the back of my forest images just to enhance that feeling of depth in the image and this is a case where that would appear to be helpful.

Very nice work.

These are very nice, Ray.

Great comp and color here. Maybe it's me, but I lke the first as to me it looks like it's more representitive of the lighting because of the fog.

Great work!

Ray,
The first image is beautiful. I think the edit probably made the right side a tad too dark ? Maybe somewhere 40% in between the two and closer to the original may work better IMHO.

That first shot is fantastic, love the comp and the light. I can't decide on which version I prefer though

I like your edit best, of the fall. The bird photo is cool too. The clarity and color of the reflection is beautiful.
