Scan of an old work print I ran across yesterday. This was taken in the early morning shortly after which it began to hail followed by snowfall. Toyo 45cf.

Third Falls on Canada Creek

My wife and I hiked this somewhat arduous trail to a very remote waterfall in north GA. This is a new favorite spot and I had just shot this scene on 4x5 and medium format and wanted to give ULF a shot at this falls. The water level was higher than the last time I was here and a rock-hop over the creek downstream (see photo above on the first post of this page) turned into an actual creek-crossing in very frigid water on a very cold day. Wife was nonplussed but it was worth the trip. This waterfall is almost unknown and I hope to keep it that way...though publishing these images and showing them at my local gallery space / festivals, that might not happen!
I am curious if anyone has a comment on which they like better - the 4x5 comp above or the pano comp here.
Also snagged a shot of my setup while I waited for the light to change:
I like the Pano comp better. And I'd love to see those falls one day, but I won't tell anybody about them
Bryan: I usually gravitate towards the pano versions, and so I do prefer the ULF version of the falls to the 4x5. OTH, I really like the 4x5 version of the foam pool and falls, because it is a unique vision, while straight waterfall photos are relatively common, although I find yours particularly well done.
Thanks for the comments guys! The foam pool might be a good companion image. I do like to have multiple views of the same place sometimes. Last art festival I had a lady buy 3 pieces and she wanted them to be of the same place or a similar subject. I was of course happy to oblige and she went home with two shots from the same park in south GA and one similar image from FL...

Viewing it on a monitor, I like the 4 by 5 version better, and cropped to leave the upper-left 2/3rds of the image. But I would imagine the pano version, enlarged to a big print and on a wall, if it had good detail etc., would be a better choice. The viewer would have a feeling they were in the scene, rather than looking at it.
I really like the woodsy scenes you post. I used to live in the Adirondacks, and loved the thick woods and rocky streams there, and your images remind me of that region's forests.
Thanks mmerig. The 3 folks above you like the pano version, but since it's an 8x20 image it can't be "enlarged." But 8x20 inches is still pretty big as-is. Will try printing both probably.
