Drop from the Top

Was out scouting a local waterfall, and getting access to the private property its on. Here the water is cascading directly over the rock and straight down about 40-50 feet. The ice in the background stays there for quite some time I'm told as it is always hidden from the sun--unfortunately a very high sun when I shot this. Cropped to a square to eliminate the REAL bright whites. Have yet to navigate my way to the bottom, but expect to within a week or so for frontal images. ISO at 80, 1/500th sec. at f4.0. Thanks for looking!

The 'boiling' water and fast exposure is pretty neat, as is the up-down perspective. I find the side elements a bit distracting, but not sure how you could have avoided that. With some better light, will probably be worth exploring some more!

Thanks for looking Stan, yes, just a start to exploring this site as I did get permission to shoot when I want to.
