Very nice Richard, and it works well as a B&W. Nice rich tones and a delightful comp.

Excellent!!! Been there a few times myself, didn't know you could get this close to the falls.This was not taken from the lookout point I presume?

Nice shot of Metlako! I don't think I've seen a telephoto shot like this of the falls. I'm not seeing anything I would change. Nice work!!

Nice image, I like how you have composed this. I would also be interested in seeing a color version. I have some history with that particular lens you are using. Here is a suggestion. When you are as far as you where to take this I would try to keep the aperture as close to f11 as possible to maximize sharpness. Even use a polarizer to slow the the shutter and soften the water. But this water was moving so fast you may not have needed a polarizer to achieve this.

Well done! Shane
