I like the first one best because it puts more emphasis on the falls.
Thanks for sharing.

I prefer the second, for its darker tones and the foreground flow and depth. It feels complete. Thanks for sharing, Dave.

I like both of them, beautiful shots. I've rounded the Highlands twice without seeing (or remembering) these falls. Sure wish I had seen them.

Hi Dave,

Both of these are nice, but I do prefer #2 slightly over #1. I prefer the extra curling flow of the water in the foreground in it.

I really like the added contrast of #2. It has a very nice and natural feel to it.

Thanks for the feedback! Always appreciated.

Cherubino - that was the compromise - put emphasis on the falls or on the submerge rocks foreground in #2, which gives it a more swimming hole feel to it. I couldn't have both unless I went portrait and I did not like the composition it was giving me.

blueshadows - thanks. I purposely put more contrast and black in pic 2 and the foreground/depth made it more complete. Just wish my CP had cut out more of the reflection.

stanparker - The is just past the Igonish Beach entrance and I think you have to be driving towards Igonish to see the sign. Then its about 5-6 km back on a dirt road.

Jim - thanks and I agree - foreground and curling flow wins.

Ben - thanks. Both were shot with same lens (Leica 35-70 f/4) but #2 has more contrast and I ran it through NIK Viveza for some "structure", which I did not do in #1.
