Proxy Falls Magic

A classic composition from Proxy Falls... my first visit here, and probably the most beautiful falls I've visited. Had to get a little wet to capture this! I had to wipe the mist off the lens and hold the cloth over it just before firing the shutter. f/16 1/2s ISO 350. Canon 17-40 at 20mm, circular polarizer. Thanks for looking!

Love the image, but it appears slightly tilted to me - all of the water on the cliff face seems to be flowing to the right to me.

The light works great here, the greens look very good - I like the lush appearance. The comp. is also fine, I like that fg waterfall.

Just the way I like it, Chris. Lots of water and moss. Great shot.

Beautiful shot. I especially like your placement of the moss covered rocks on the right. They pull all of the falling water together nicely.

The layering and depth work great here. I also like the glowing greens.

Very nice image Chris. I like the "in your face" comp here. What is the orange color way up on the cliff?

Thanks Scott. The bit of orange is just a patch of sunlight.

Never get tired of seeing Proxy falls. Great shot and I can imagine you would have got a little wet!
