OK. Now this one is kinda intersting. They have these bridges crossing over the canyon at various intervals. It was nicely overcast so I wanted to get a shot. In order to get this shot I had to precariously setup my Ebony and 300mm lens and point it almost straight down into the canyon to shoot. It was a formula for every LF shooters bad dreams. Luckily no problems this time and I managed to get a cool shot. It is a little hot in a couple places, I need to check my other piece of film for this shot.

Nice, I love the way you have gotten the greens surrounding the water - sweet

Very nice composition. I like the balance of the green on either side of the falls is really nice. I was in Maligne Canyon in August and could see any nice compositions.

This just looks so crisp and clean! Very nice.

Very nice, Richie - this has a nice graphical quality to it. Not quite abstract, but it tempts you to view it that way.
I had the same concerns - camera hanging over a railing, pointing down, tourists and dogs all around having snapshots taken. Not a soothing experience, though you wouldn't know that from this shot. Keep 'em coming!

Nice one Richie. There is very little sense of scale, which I think is pretty cool in this shot. It's kind of a hard one to figure out.
