Thanks Ken. I liked how you handled that high contrast situation in the first image.

I think I know where the waterfall picture was taken. I took some as well of a weathered tree in the other direction. I'll see if I can find it.

Same place and the leaf colors are about the same colors too.

Love that drive over Sonora pass.

I used both Lightroom and PS on the first image.

Beautiful leaf color on those aspens.
And I love the play of black on white, shadows on trunks.
You done good, Ken. Gracias.
