WOW ! That is such amystical view, with the water running down (you used a long opening time didn’t you ?) and its color (the colors of the marvelous sunset reflecting in it). Incredible ! A great one !

This is such a cool shot! Very unique! You have such a wonderful and appropriate name for this forest water shot!

I like the long exposure time on the waterfalls however the rest of the photo isnt very sharp in my opinion looks like you where more interested in the water than the rest of the shot. Otherwise i like it.

This picture really blows me away. I love the pink sky reflecting on the water! Great work Buck!

I like the colors very much, specially the contrast of the pink sky/water and the green vegetation, though the green is getting a bit overpowered. I also like the shapes formed by the whites of the flowing water which play off very well with the other similar shapes formed by the forest and the sky. A little more brightening of the shadows would also have helped.

That is a really great shot. The flowing water is just great. It gives a sense of motion but at the same time a sense of stillness, such a great combination.

This was obviously taken just before spring so I understand the green being overpowered. This picture is amazing. I love the set up you used to take the shot. Definitely an amazing shot!

This is good, but I agree with Anurag that some more details in the shadows wouldn’t have hurt. I like the ‘wildness’ of the river and the fact those trees grow on rocks not only in the middle of the river but also near to edge of the fall. Lovely composition.

I adore the colors coupled with the trees!.. Nice, realistic catch, very colorful, pretty, and DITTO to Lauren and also to Peter vander Horst about the trees growing on rocks in the middle of the river, etc.! Cool pix!
Tom Brooklyn
Beautiful spot. Nice composition of the falls. Agree on a bit more shadow than optimal.
