Ciao Douglas, fantastic exposure on wonderful waterfall, superb composition with beautiful natural colors, very well done, have a good week end, ciao Silvio

Anytime I see your work I'm just shaking my head, WOW. This is marvelous composition! You are right, this is a fairy tale place! You must get down in the water and shoot! I'm afraid I would fall, camera, tripod and all into the drink! Superb pp work here!

hi douglas.
skye looks as exciting as glen etive.
the fg rocks are so impactful in this image. the water has been caught perfectly. a nice touch of warmth in the sky. is this a little viveza?
cheers.

Nice landscape Douglas. I enjoy a stream much more when a person does not make it all milky with a long sutter.

Maybe if it had been a little more of a sunny day, the mountains in the background may have been brighter. But still it is a very nice photo.

Straight out of a calendar. Textbook everything! Beautifully controlled and managed shot. Kudos.

Hello Douglas,

Excellent landscape shot.
Wonderful composition, great clarity, sharp details and the colors are perfectly shown.

Best regards,
Tatjana

Hello Douglas,

I like your low pov which makes a great feature of the f/g rocks, detailing their shapes, textures and resident lichens. You have produced an interesting effect on the cascading water - not fast enough for splashes nor slow enough for the silky effect - yet with enough movement.
Good leads towards the distant hills.

Have a good w/e,
Bev :-)
