Wide Angle Advantage

I'm still learning what I can do with my Tokina 11-16mm F/2.8 Ultra-Wide zoom. I'm returning to scenic favorites to do some tests on the sharpness and angle of view I can achieve with this marvelous lens. The photo below is of Multnomah Falls in Oregon. There was no problem capturing the entire falls standing on the handrail at the base of the falls, a first. I managed to get the photo without the normal gaggle of tourist that always flock there. My secret, it was raining and chilly.

Re: Wide Angle Advantage

great shot, type of photo I like. I would crop out the dark line on the left of the photo and the light line on the right hand side if it were my photo.

Re: Wide Angle Advantage

I personally think the bridge adds something I would definitely avoid the border type PP though - I like it natural!

Cloning out the bridge to me would be altering a landmark.

Re: Wide Angle Advantage

I suppose that is true Bob, it probably would alter this famous landmark, and by too much

Actually it's not crooked at all. It's the perspective captured from standing so that I can get the falls fully in the photo.
