Right from the Top

One of my favorite places, finally I can show it from top to bottom, about seven steps. There are three ponds above this, feeding a gorgeous stream. A foot bridge crosses about midway, but the owners have it fenced off. An old mill/tannery.

I hope you enjoy. Larger posted too, comments welcomed. ISO-100, 4 seconds, f-25 and 55mm to get me to the back. Please check out the BG as it drops down.

Beautiful, Bill! I love the composition, the POV, the colors, the light.

Thanks Rich and Barbara, yes Rich on Post #2, I checked it out in PSE before putting it up as I wondered about a slight rotation, but it came out straight.

Oh, one thing I do like about this in particular is the clarity of the water in the main cascade, so that you can even see the stone pattern behind it. :toast:

A beautiful setting and well captured!
The mood is great!
This is definately a wall hanger.
I'd clone out the red fence posts and rope at the bridge.
Congrats on an excellent photograph!! :toast:
