Shoshone Falls

I was away from home for much of September. Unfortunately, none of my travels were photography related but I did take my camera along. This one is from Twin Falls, Idaho. Rainbows forming at the bottom of Shoshone Falls. I think I caught the evening light at a good time. Thanks for looking.

1/160sec f/25 34mm

I like the tight intimate composition composition here. The water mist adds to the drama. Excellent work.

This image captures the power of this waterfall quite nicely, and the rainbow adds that interesting drop of color. Great image.

I really like this. The waterfalls must be deafening with that much flow. The rainbow is a great addition. Very well done.

Wow, I had no idea there were such gigantic falls in Idaho! Wonderful perspective that really crams as much waterfall into the picture as possible, and the mist is fantastic. I like a crop off the bottom (losing the water at the base), as it seems to simplify the scene.

Cool--and you caught a double too! The left half aint nearly as strong as the right (crop the right and youll see what i mean) but the mist does add some atmosphere, so it works alright. A nice shot, Sandy!

I like your composition but i also agree with floris to crop off the bottom a little bit. The mist adds a lot to this scene
