The cliff detail at the base of the falls looks underexposed/dark otherwise this is a fantastic shot Daniel. I love the shutter speed and point of view here. Awesome work!

Hey Daniel. I like the low perspective that you've chosen and how the stream draws your eyes into the base of the falls.

Outstanding! I like this composition and the action in the water. The larger version is just stunning.

Well composed, Daniel, and delight to view. On my monitor
the exposure looks right on. I like the colors, textures, and
forms.

Nice comp with the off-center falls and the foreground water taking me into the scene. Nice exposure on the water too. Texture looks good.

Very cool shot Daniel. I like the comp which doesn't quite show the top of the falls. Nice job with the right to left movement of the water through the frame. I actually shot this waterfall from the exact same spot during the winter. Even with snowshoes it was a little treacherous getting down to the stream, because everything was covered in ice!

Wonderfully composed image. I really like...well, more or less everything. :-) Great movement of the water. The sweeping line of the green moss on the right hand side. That waterfall in the background. All wonderful. :-)

Scott - Yes I finally figured out a way to make Tamanawas photogenic. As scenic a spot as this is, images that include the whole falls just don't seem to work for me, so . . . I cut 'em off! I'm definitely going back this winter with snowshoes.

Hey Daniel,
Great angle and I love the lushness of the greens too! Just enough of the falls to make this one really work nicely!
