Light test from this afternoons portrait session.

Don't we all...Took an afternoon to get a few shots I was happy with but they say patience is the first requirement for landscape photography.
Or street photography
Or nature photography
Or people photography.
It all takes patience.
I've not done many waterfall shots, but when I have I always take a couple of ND filters so you can try different timings etc. Always worth having a good couple of lens cloths with you as well.

Another view of the Valley of Desolation. Don't worry, only a couple more to endure. Comments always welcome.

Is a map not the first requirement?

Yeah, most of us feel like that when @anotherscotsman posts yet another stunner!

Thanks Ken...much appreciated. For me, the opportunity to photograph just the Lilac Breasted Roller would have been worth the trip.
Successful test by the look of it...really nice light.

This is your best view of this beautiful scene anotherscotsman.
Two suggestions from me...first, I think you've got a bit too much of the foreground rocks showing and would crop off a third to one half of the them so the eye goes to the waterfall more quickly. Second, it's looking a tad dark on my screen and would bump the overall exposure up just a bit.

The strongest IMO. Not sure if you've bumped the exposure since C&A comments, but the brightness looks spot on to me.Third one from the Valley of Desolation. Comments always appreciated.

You could be right AFB. The monitor I'm using right know is a little dark. Either that or it's because I'm still on my first cup of coffee for the day and not that bright either.
