The gorge - Latourell

I really like this. I like the water movement in the falls, the textures in the rock wall, and the greens at the foot. Gorgeous image.

This is very pretty, Danny. I agree with all Morris just said! That water motion in the falls is great looking, and I really enjoy the texture in the rock wall. Very Nice!

The rock texture really makes this for me. I could wish for a technical explanation of same.

Danny, the plainness of your composition makes it really strong for me. The delicate farns and the rock surface complement and contrast each another appealingly to me. Furthermore, the repetition of curved lines together with the vertical fall are very creative elements to my eye.

I really like the lush greens contrasting with the basalt formations, looks like a great place to take a few images!

Why is Latourell Falls closed to the public

Tony - Latourell is closed due to work on the the parking area and trail, they have the whole area fenced off, its been like this for a while.

Danny,

First off, congrats for pulling off a non-standard comp putting the falls off to one side. Of course I think it means you were very interested in the rock and surrounding environment, not just the falls. Second, great job with the shutter speed - the falls really look like they are suspended in air, not just falling water.

This is well seen and crafted. Nice work.

Very nice image Danny. I really like the off centered comp here. The comp does a good job giving equal weight to the rock formations and the falls. Well done.
