Hello Linda,
A classic shot.
The colors and the dim light is giving magical effect to the picture.
absence of moon would definitely had effected the picture,
as its presence is giving pleasing effect.

Hi Linda

Aha! So that's where you've been! Good sharpness, & I like the violet illumination on the impressive cataract. A good nocturnal shot, with well controlled lighting & superb lighting contrasts. Tfs!

Hi Linda

Impressive shot of the falls by night.
The rising moon and the glow on the water look good.
Nice one.

Hi Linda,
Great nocturnal picture of the falls. The (almost) full moon is a wonderful detail, like the shining and colourful reflections. I assume you used a tripod for this picture? Anyway a stunning view well captured and presented! Good to know you had a great time wit Tomek ans Silke!

Hey, Linda -
Welcome back! Great post to start off with - the falls are lit so beautifully and subtly and you really captured the right balance with moon, the buildings and the reflection on the sharply shown surface of the water. I can't wait to see more posts from your trip. Cheers -

Hi Linda,

The silky smooth purple falls are magnificent. This is a really nice night scene and something we don't see very often. The full moon is a real bonus. Welcome back.

Best regards,
Werner

Hello Linda,

You have done well with this night shot; it is clear, beautifully illuminated from the natural and artificial lights and that violet hue over the waterfall is breathtaking!
Well done!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Nice nightscape Linda!! The vertical format works perfectly for this scene..

Just interested as to why the choice of F4.5 and 1 second as personally I'd have taken a smaller aperture and longer shutter speed - if only to get smoother water for the moon's reflection and little twinkling starlights..

Cheers
David
