Approaching this area is really difficult and dangerous because all stones and rocks are covered with green moss.

Wow! What a great photograph. I really like the way the green moss adds a splash of color. :wavey:

Ahhh, yes. The green slime of death. Killer of photographers and cameras alike. Sure works well in the picture though, and the processing of it in the background helps this flat light and adds depth. Nothing I would do differently here, given the conditions.

Very pretty shot Jose. I'm sure it was a dangerous trek down there. Glad you made it back to share your image.

Nicely composed, I like the mossy ledge leading the eye to the falls
