Little Waterfall; Dodging and Burning

Due to construction I had to be a little creative compositionally at this spot. I tried to do a little more abstract feel with the close up on the waterfall. If you know this spot in Luxembourg you know there's a very pretty walking bridge that runs over the top of the stream. I tried quite a bit of dodging and burning in this one to accentuate the lighting. I've uploaded one 2x3 version, as well as one 16x9 to gauge which is the better liked. Please let me know what you think!

16 x 9

Ditto - the space expands to best show the central subject. It seems "squeezed" in the first image.

Great shot, love the retained detail in the flow.

2x3
The second one feels like you have cut the head off a person as you can't see above it.

Love the stunning wet green tones and the effect created by the long exposure. Almost looks like ice fracturing which adds a super interesting element.

16x9 - I think the 2x3 would help with depth, but for me it actually puts more focus on the right side of the fall instead.

Beautiful images. I prefer the 2x3 as it gives more breathing space at the top of the falls which not only acts as a frame but tells a bit more of the story.

I like the top one better as there is a bit more room at the top so I get a sense of perspective and context.
