    I like the intense colors, and you have chosen a view that plays the textures of water, grass, hillside and clouds to their best advantage. Very nice!

  2. mike mike Says:

    I love the landscape.

  3. Photos by Nik Says:

    Great composition. I specially like the waterfall along with the clouds

  4. Su Su Says:

    What a wonderful shot and somewhere I dont think has been shown on this site before. Congrats on POTD :)

  5. Anurag Anurag Says:

    Looks as though the clouds are pouring into a funnel formed by the trees and emerging out in the form of the waterfall.
    Wild imagination I guess ;-)

  6. Catrin Hinrichs Says:

  10. Marie Dunphy Harding Says:

    Ah, comfort food for the soul!

  11. Dianne Says:

    The cloud/funnel idea is really quite profound!
    It DOES look like it…..quite majestic. Just think, how awesome it would be to stand there when the skies are in dawn or sunset. Water would take on a whole different reflection. Great shot, thank you.

  12. John Reid Says:

    Thanks for the comments everyone – my wife actually shot this one. She shot a few different compositions from a tripod and ended up joining 4 images to make this one (it had to be printed BIG for a client).

  13. Kirk Jordan Says:

    I am trying to get a sense of scale. At first glance it looked quite small, like it was just a meter or two, pouring out of a ditch, then the next moment it grew to look huge like a 10 story building. How tall is the fall?

    Anrug, I always enjoy your comments!!! They force me to look beyond the mundane, into the creative world in which I struggle mightily to live. A funnel…I wish I could see inside how your mind works! Thank you for the brain exercise today (and to all of you who brighten my day with your exquisite photografic works)!!!

  17. istvan istvan Says:

    great clouds and waterfall, magical light – a great shot!

  18. Tim Says:

    I love the depth, and every bit of the distance has something to offer, and something unique. This is as nearly perfect as you can get in my opinion. Nice job

  19. Pauline Jones Pauline Jones Says:

    Well composed but not much variety in the colors.
