This one is messing with me, Rich. It's gorgeous, but I'm having a hard time "locking in" on the perspective between the foreground in the bottom left and the rest of the image. It's hard to explain, but when I first looked at this, I thought you were shooting a distant falls between two entirely differnt rock formations and using those foreground rocks as a frame. But then I realized that the foreground "rocks" actually continue all the way to the top of the image. And the EXIF data says f4.6 at a quarter of a second? I would have guessed a much higher f number... 22 or more. You created a bit of an optical illusion with this one! Maybe some 3D glasses would help. Wink

Clem thanks for the nice comments.This is not one of my better pictures.
I set the camera on Tv mode which set the high f number as it was dark in the valley.I really should have reset the Iso to about 400-600 to get better shutter speed.Unfortunate that this was a holiday weekend so will not get chance to take it again soon.

I always enjoy waterfall shots like this...must be the fantasy world element within my character, or perhaps the fact that I'm enjoying the BRIT TV series "Games of Thrones" right at this moment Smile "He who passes the sentence must carry out the execution"


The only thing that grabs my attention and something that I find distracting is that small branch (line) located at the second bottom water crest.The way it's situated gived the look of a mask-cutout job, and my eye/brain (complete with it's triplopia images Smile goes right there immediately each time I look at it.
