Okay, I know this is a much snapped shot in Mt. Rainier NP. But I'd never stopped before because of the crowds. This time it was possible to stop and enjoy the view. Hopefully this is slightly better than a "snap?"

D200, 24-120/3.5-5.6VR @ 29mm; f14, 1/3s, -0.3 EV; ISO 100; handheld. Shot last July.

Appreciate your thoughts, as always, and thanks for popping in for a look.

I like it because it's weird, Catherine. The curve of the falls is weird but the rest is so natural that I have a hard time reconciling the two. I like that because it forces me to think about the photo.

Neat shot , catherine. The perspective emphasizes the motion very well.

I have to echo what was said above already. This is pretty cool, Catherine. :toast:

Nice to see a very different take on such a frequently photographed subject.

Catherine,
The curve of the falls really is the focal point of this image. It just draws me right in. Excellent work!
