The water of the waterfall and the sky on top are very bright, while the
shadow areas in the trees are very dark.

It's ok, but I was never a fan of the neon-greens this produces.


The greens look OK to me but I suppose it depends upon what you are
used to.


I leaning towards RichA on this one but YMMV...

That's not much help. The question is what was the original green?
There is no such thing as a standard green for foliage. Look at the
range of greens here
https://www.dropbox.com/s/c912omw7w9...00502.jpg?dl=0
or here
https://www.dropbox.com/s/irz2t9v62a...99-br.jpg?dl=0

To a considerable extent it depends upon the light.

I agree with you but my first reaction was to try to double the size
of the image. I think it would have a different impact then. Even so,
I would like to be able to see a little more deeply into the shadows
of the trees. I would also like to see more detail of the clouds and
sky but suspect there is none there to resolve.



Yup, I was looking for a "zoom" button as well.
Viewed larger it might have a completely different "feeling".
As is, those greens look like neon lights...

I wrote YMMV... And the tip was intended for the OP! The most basic
problem with foliage and digital photography is how well the infrared is
filtered out. The reflexion of IR makes it, the foliage subject less
than subtle variations pending time, whether and light source. My
Olympus Evolt E-300 had a notoriously weak IR filter! :-ppp

Maybe a bit over-saturated, but you were there, not me. The only other
thing is that the foreground looks unnaturally bright, at least
compared to what I can see of the sky. It's like it's what you would
see if someone were lighting it.


The foreground is indeed that bright. See for instance this non-HDR
version of the image:

Hard to tell. Here are two non-HDR versions of the same scene:

http://myolympus.org/document.php?id=20171

Personally I think the greens of the HDR look cute.

There is very little detail in the clouds.

IMHO it is indeed a badly processed image. I suspect that the burning of
the highlights, and lack of shadow detail, are the result of either
shooting in low quality JPEG, and/or bad processing. The over saturation
and over-saturation and high luminescence of the green, are clues to
poor processing.


Ehhpp... this is an HDR done from five RAW images.
