PHOTO FOR JAN 2012 (Webster's Falls)

How I did it -

This illustration captured in the SPRING of 2011 s a collection of illustrations I captured of the falls, so that I could make a PANORAMIC illustration using under Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 (File > New > Photomerge > the Auto command.)

Once this opened up in Adobe Photoshop Elements 7, I saved in Adobe PhotoShop default format and closed.

Re-opened in CAMERA-IN-RAW made corrections to colour balance, and cropped the file to remove the blank spaces etc as Adobe Photoshop Elements 7 does not feature CONTENT AWARE..

After Christmas tried of my desktops / wallpapers on my notebook opened this file and resized for it, and liked the look so then resized 600 x ? for sharing with you my WATER FLOW image that Fat Chan had arranged as our topic for this month.

Fat Chen	A really impressive grant sight which can use as wallpaper in computer. I prefer to see more about the lower part of the waterfall, so the water-flow direction will looks completed.
Barbara Dunn	This is a very picturesque image. The waterfall catches one's eye and draws it back to the bridge. The even lighting makes the scene look peaceful and relaxing.
Peggy Seale
Steven Wharram	Well, this certainly illustrates flowing water. The composition and lighting work well here. It’s a shame about the path and bridge, for me, as otherwise it would look a very natural/wild image.
Cheryl Auditor	Wonder capture of the waterfalls in a very natural looking surrounding. Great idea to make the panoramic of this scene, I’m sure you wouldn’t have been able to portray the whole scene otherwise and it looks seamless.
