    Not bad at all for a first attempt! Making that water look milky is fun, isn't it?
    Nice shot! Although, to exaggerate the height a bit, I think a wider angle , set lower to the ground, and turned to portrait mode, would have a bit more impact.
    I absolutely love shots like these, do you have any more?
    Keep an eye on that 'Tools of the Trade' project thread in the assignments forum...I try to add new pictures often!

    dig how you composed the rock "frame" - well done

    Thanks Justin, Ed and Vyeko.

    Justin - I agree a lower perspective would have been better, however this is from a viewing platform. I wasn't into rock climbing in order to get that lower perspective.
    Ed - I did try to use the rock to frame it.
    Vyeko - It was a difficult exposure. Lots of dynamic range between the falls and the dark rock on right. I did the best I could to bring this out in Lightroom.

    I think I like the horizonal play of water as much as the vertical. Nice!
