It is a little oasis next to the forest of skyscrapers in Surfers Paradise, Queensland, Australia. The name of the island is in some dispute. It was believed to be named after a former Lands Department officer, however the local council have begun replacing signs for Macintosh island with McIntosh island after a descendant of the early European settlers produced historical records.

The waterfall is surrounded by subtropical rain-forest in the Numinbah Valley. It is home to a colony of glow worms. As it is only 1hr from Southport we made it a day trip so missed the night lights.

To add light to the darker areas of the image I increased the gamma value. Gamma shifts all the mid-tones towards the highlights or the shadows. By changing the Gamma value from 1 to 1.5 it increases the image brightness. I’ve added a faint mask over the brightest areas to preserve the detail.
