Procrastination

Unfortunately procrastination is a common habit
Nature taught me how to avoid being lazy and keep seeking for chances of success specially while capturing this work.

Amazing capture. An impressive lesson in light and the grand vista. This is how I imagine a spot in paradise could look like. Fantastic!

Wow! I must get over there one of these days. Beautiful image, especially like that splash of light on the mountain side and waterfall.

This is just magical. Thank you for sharing this amazing place and your equally amazing image. New Zealand seems to be a place of a thousand enchantments, and you did this one justice, without a doubt.

Beautiful and very wild abdulaziz. The blue sky needs little brightness "honestly"

This is beautiful. Amazing light and you captured it wonderfully. This is great just to sit here and look at for awhile. Wish I was there!

I love the pockets of light and clarity in this. The clear reflections along the shore leading to the peak and waterfall really keep the viewer engaged with this image. My only nit is I'd love to see a larger version!

Doesn't look like a real place. Gorgeous.

Magificent. The cloud hanging on the slope just over the waterfall looks a little odd for some reason, but nature is full of oddities. Well done.

There are elements in this one that are sick but my mind is having a hard time with the comp. It almost feels like 2 pictures. My eye goes to the middle then gets split left and then right so I'm never ending up in the photo. Now I scroll down to see what other people say....Epic light and processing

Beautiful image Abdullaziz. The lighting is perfect and the waterfall really adds to the scene.

Stunning landscape and amazing light control. Good eye for composing this and making it work.

Amazing light and scene--just spectacular! I have a slight reservation about the 50/50 split here, since the two sides are so different from each other, but im not sure it would have been possible to compose this without losing an important element here--like the waterfall and sun, since theyre on opposite sides. Maybe you should take a boat next time...

Anyhow, its a great shot!

A fantastic shot, especially counterpointing the rocks in the foreground to the mountain in the background! The light is incredible.

What a spectacular place, Aziz! The light here really brings it to life. I don't much care for the log, but it's not terribly distracting either.

Very striking... exactly why I've always wanted to visit NZ. Exposure control and color looks great. I'd favor pulling back the whites in the water fall a wee bit, but other than that this more than works for me. Good stuff!

Great image! I love the repetition of shape from the foreground rock to the middle ground mountain to the background mountain. Thanks for posting!

What a beautiful rendition of Milford Sound! Not easy to make something new of this iconic place. Lucky with the light considering the 8000mm of rain that drops down there every year! I myself enjoyed a full day of rain on my recent trip down there
