This was taken about 2 in the afternoon and the light was as harsh as it gets. Luckily, some of it was broken up be trees and highlighted the forground foliage.

Michael,

This is beautiful! The shutter speed for the water is very effective. There are also some interesting flow patterns in the water, which ends nicely on the rocks. FG tree nice touch. I like the bw conversion. :smile:

I am surprised this does not have more comments, Mike. The shutter speed used to capture the motion in the water is right on and I really like all of the wonderfull cascades in the falls. BTW, excellent choice converting this to B&W.
