Nice picture Klaus,

I’ll give some feedback about waterfall pictures, since they are one of my favorite subject

Composition an lighting is according to the books. It is all about lines and shapes. Lighting- cloudy or in shadow is the best. Nice work. However I have some remarks. Photographing in wet environment most likely requires polarizing filter.e.g. image with climbing man is screaming for polarizing filter. Of course this will ruin the purpose of PZ test images. Anyway so many blown highlights are not welkom in test images too. One of your option could be - shoot them with polarizer for private purpose and search another subject for PZ test images.





Greetings,

Miro

PS this is my opinion.

Agreed. These aren't my best pictures for sure. You are right , a polarizer would have helped but as you mentioned - these are test shots.

In a perfect world I would have also taken a tripod of course ... but my girlfriend would have killed me then.

Maybe you should think about carrying it yourself <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' />

Hi Klaus



So you will do the next reviews with the 24 MPixel sensor?



Regards, Marco
