From a recent visit to upstate South Carolina. This fall is located about two hours by car from Atlanta,GA, and requires about an hour RT hike.

Interesting place. I especially the "looking up" aspect of the upper layer of falling water.

I've actually been to this fall before. My parents' have a second home not far from this area. When I visited there a couple years back there wasn't nearly as much water flowing. Overall, I really like the processing especially the contrast in the water and the razor sharpness of the image. I think the comp works, it does seem a bit tight on the right side. Anyways, it is way better than anything I got. Thanks so much for sharing.

Thanks for the comments. The crop is tight on the right side. If I remember right there were a bunch of people milling around there. Unfortunately they left about the same time that the sun starte burning off the clouds. The rest of the shots I got were isolated portions of the fall that were still in shade.
