Willow Falls II
I made another visit to my favorite winter waterfall location last week. It was another cold day and I found the entire area around Willow Falls covered in hoary frost. It provided an opportunity for some great photography. Additional photos on my web site

Comments are appreciated.

All the elements come together here. Good choice of shutter speed for the moving water. Nicely done.

Phil,

I like the photo, but I think that I'd like it better if you had moved to the right a bit more, so that the ends of snow-covered tree branches were contrasting with only stream, and not merging into the snow on the left bank of the stream. Does that make sense? Also, whilst I'm nitpicking, what about moving closer so that the stream flows out of the lower right corner rather than having the bank and branches there???

Tim!

Beautiful, Phil. The soft light and the pastel tones really make this image.
