Moody Waterfall  ( Watkins Path Snowdonia )
Canon 5D, Canon 24-105L, F16, 1/15, iso 100, Tripod Cable release.

Out of action at the moment as my back as had other ideas. Still cant get out to make any new pictures, but it does give me time to work on long over due pictures. This is one from last year taken in September, and as you can see the weather was terrible and it rained for two days solid, with no sign of any improvement. So when all else fails I go looking for waterfalls in the mountains to help give then some nice backgrounds with moody skys.

I do find the Watkins path up to Snowdon as some superb waterfalls at the beginning of the walk.

Hi Guy,

My kind of shot!! Love the comp. The movement in the water is excellent and the dark moody skies really set the whole image off. The area going up to the right top corner could maybe do with a bit of lightning, to try and bring out some detail, but other than that, top marks !!

Hope the back gets better soon and your able to get out and aboput ASAP.

Regards

Rob

I've walked by this many many times Guy but never seen it looking so dramatic. A splendid landscape.

Looks typical of all the times I spent in Snowdonia.... very atmospheric... just a couple of minor D&B issues....
