Although I am also a TBI survivor who is pretty much fully recovered, I can only dream of taking shots like this one. Incredible!

This is absolute beautiful, my idea of part of the real Garden of Eden. I would love to be in this picture right now, it’s so fantastic. I love all the beautiful colors and the water. I can picture myself playing in the water, lol. Keep up the good work. Would like to know where this is exactly, would love to visit there someday. God bless you Tom!

good to see film after a long while, I particularly like the zebra like pattern of the lower waterfall and also the colour depth created by the contrasting orande red and the blue-greens

Excellent capture!! Great shutter speed - the water and the colors of the walls look vibrant and alive.

Great stuff!!

Wow! A really beautiful photo which I never knew existed in this world. The rough, rocky features and the waterfall really makes the photo surreal and amazing. It really does remind of Eden. Great photo. Well done!
