Sunday Morning
I believe this is Indian Creek, forgive me if I'm wrong.
I done a lot of walking around Sunday morn just trying to soak up all the beauty and burn it into my brain before I had to head out of these awesome places. This is a shot from the little ledge I crawled out on while most of you where waiting patiently right above.
I can't thank you all enough for the wonderful time I had, and being able to spend many hours with such a great group of photographers.
Rod, your kindness and generosity is very much appreciated, make sure you give Sid a treat from me. Wayne thanks again for putting together a super weekend!

Take Care All,
Brad

Wow! I love this perspective! And there I was down in the bowl when the best view was from right above me. Great shot, perfectly composed and you even got a little of the redbud in the frame. Very nice vision here Brad.

Glad you were able to make the long drive down to join us. We have a great group of people and talented photographers to boot at CSNP. It's great to see our membership growing; thanks for joining us in Arkansas. :wavey:

Oooo...that's a sweet one, Brad. Beautiful composition and nice job processing.

It was great to meet you - hope to see you again next year. Keep up the good work!

Brad, great job capturing so much detail in every area of this photo. The rim of the canyon leads the eye nicely through this. You're right - the location is Indian Creek. The waterfall is named Hammerschmidt Falls.

I enjoyed your company this weekend. Hope to see you at the next gathering.

Hey Brad, That is a great shot. I love the perspective and the inclusion of the moss and red buds in the foreground. I'm glad someone was able to show this angle because I sure as heck wasn't going to go over there. I enjoyed meeting you and spending some time stomping around the hills with you and the other members of CSNP.

Hi Brad love the image and all the moss on the ledge. Wish you had a little more water for it.

Nice one Brad. This angle shows the little channel the water has cut into the rock and how it overhangs the canyon. Great job handling the vast lighting range of this scene.
It was nice meeting you even if we had to drive six hours south to meet a neighbor. But what a great place to explore with a great group of like minded photogs.

Brad, great composition, I really like the redbuds in the foreground. It looks like I really missed some good opportunities on Sunday morning. I enjoyed meeting you at the outing.

And here I was thinking you didn't shoot anything Sunday. Like the rest I love your perspective, and the details make it great, the color of the moss, the redbud, the placement of the waterfall. Good job.

Yessir, beautiful shot. Very strong graphically, with simple and bold lines and shapes. And I get vertigo just looking at it.
