Very different view Bill. I like it especially the wonderful rainbow and light on the rocks.

The crashing/falling water really gives this scene some energy and a dynamic feel. Great composition and color. The rainbow is just icing on the cake. Great work!

This is fantastic. I love the turmoil in the water and the rock formation is quite interesting. It's a well composed image and the exposure looks just right. Well done.

Awesome title - looks like it suffers a lot from compression (that is to say it's beautiful, but I know the wall size must be stunning). One of the best photos I've seen you post (and it's not even a flower!)

This is wild! I can hear the roar of the water, and feel the mist. :toast:

Looks like fun.....and maybe a bit dangerous? Never been there before, so i dunno.

Neat! Great exposure. Do you have an "open parenthesis" as a companion piece? :wink:

this is powerful and delicate at the same time due to the presence of the rainbow. there´s dynamics everywhere. love the way the rainbow is disposed, top to bottom. nice detailed rocks as well. the only thing that bothers me is the perspective...man, scary.... :biggrin: ! well done, bill.

Awesome capture Bill. I wouldn't have easily recognized the location, but regardless of the location, this is a fantastic image. No nits.
