Joe, what I like most about this image is the sense of the surreal. I can't tell if I am looking up, down, sideways. Very cool. It keeps me in the scene and puzzling it out. I love it.

David nailed the analysis of this image! He also put it in a positive light for me, as I found it a little disconcerting. Very creative.

Glad you like it. The view is from above, looking down on the falls, which flows over a tilted slab rather than straight down.

This is a really cool image Joe. You created lots of visual tension here...which is a good thing! The brain really has to process what's going on here to make sense out of it. Well done.
