New edit on my Aldeyjarfoss Waterfall also posted in the Landscape Photographer
Beautiful edit of your already beautiful photo, Ronny. To paraphrase Ansel Adams, the "negative" is the score, the printing (processing) is the interpretation of the music. Cudos, my friend. You, and a number of other contributors here at FM, are a constant source of inspiration.

Interesting story from these two photos today, of a very belligerent home owner and his equally belligerent wife. He actually accosted me (in only his bathrobe, no less!) right after the second image taken on a side street, of the white rhododendrons, belly-bumping me for 1-2 minutes on the sidewalk. Luckily, I'm a pretty big guy, and being on public property (street for the pano, and sidewalk on the rhody) I held my ground, having every right to take pictures of anything publicly displayed. He rambled about crime and bums in the area, and I asked, "So I look like a bum with a $4000 camera and a ten-speed bicycle?" I had even showered and shaved the previous day!
The funny thing is, if he had been more conversational than confrontational, I would have been happy to email him a nice copy at no charge, as I do for any nice folks.
For whatever reason, I am getting more "Can I help you?" in an aggravated and belligerent tone than when I am walking on foot through neighborhoods. Maybe I look furtive on the bike? I will say that we do have a fair amount of druggies and homeless that pedal around on bikes (speculating that they have acquired DUI convictions and can't drive a motor vehicle). Maybe I need to get help with my wardrobe?
