Another capture from one of the numerous falls in Lauterbrunnen Valley, Switzerland. I was especially attracted by the interplay of colors on the rock face.

I like you selected shutter speed Peter. The water flow looks very graceful against the rock face.

Alright Peter, this one has excellent contrast and saturation. The shimmering off the water soaked rocks is not blown out at all. The larger view gives the feeling of being right there too.

Peter, This is really nice. The falls looks great against all the textures and color of the rock. I think your shutter speed was perfect for a nice pleasing effect. Very nice processing on this too!

This really needs to be viewed large to be appreciated. I love the colors on wall and the sheen. Very nicely done.

Glad I clicked on the larger view. It really shows off the texture in the wall.

A lovely study of tones and textures.

The shimmering rock face and metalic like colors really set this off!

The color and pattern of the rockface are really outstanding, but with the added interest and motion of the falls, this becomes stunning. The subtle cool/warm contrasts in the rock are so unique and really capture the viewer.

Beautifully done, Peter. The SS is spot on and I love those textures and tones in the rock face. The large version is a must see IMO.

Like the metallic colors and the sheen on the rocks Peter. Very smooth waterflow also. Very nice.

The ribbon like softness of the falling water contrast so well against the stolid rock face. I am really enjoying this view.

Very beautiful portrait of a waterfall! The rock looks particularly interesting - the colors work so well.
