Assignment 13: Vertical Compositions -- Congratulations elmo_2006

Congratulations Jonathan Huyer on the last assignment! He has quickly gotten a subject in for the next assignment so here is the thread for Assignment 13: Vertical Compositions. Jon's description is below.


"For the next assignment, how about vertical compositions (i.e., portrait rather than landscape)? The photo should be one that is a 'natural' fit for a vertical orientation. The main reason I have chosen this assignment is because I have approximately zero such shots in my collection... I almost always shoot in the horizontal! I'm looking forward to getting inspired by your submissions once again."

It just seems to make sense to shoot waterfalls in portrait. I can't decide which I like best.


The first three falls are located along the Minnesota north shore of Lake Superior.
