About One of my favorite views of the falls. Practically a religious experience - kind of puts us in perspective.

I love this pic. Reminds me of simple words of Bruce Lee. "Be like the water, it is the softest thing in the world, yet can penitrate through ROCK." thank you Jim for the kind words.

Sincerely
Liddo Ray Night

When I originally pulled up this image, I started grabbing for the hand rail. It draws you in like a vortex.

It flows from solid to liquid to mist creating a wonderful example of entropy at work.

Very, very nice perspective here Jim! Really captured the essence of the Falls. Color and clarity make this one a real "screamer". My attention is drawn right into that water flow. I've not gotten a similar view there before. Good eye. Congratulations!

Nice shot - with the flash of light in the corner. I've stood around there too and wondered at the power and the sound

Powerful image, sharp composition. You can almost feel the vibration and hear the roar and feel the mist on your face!

Steve,
No, not being sucked in but rather that I am just a tiny piece of the whole universe. However I will admit to a touch of vertigo now and then :-)

Steve Tomkinson   {K:3243} 3/24/2005
Couldn't agree with your comments more. We are trivial & fleeting in comparison. Superb photo.

Question - do you feel like you are being 'sucked in' when you stand here?

Regards Steve.

This is a fantastic photograph. I like the almost unique colors, the dof and sharpness is exactly at that point that is important for me the have that realistic view. It?s almost that I have the feeling the falls are besides me, congrats!

Very clear and beautiful shot. 1/1000 of a sec stoped water very well. You can really feel the power.

We all know what those falls look like, but this is a really nice and different composition, I like the dynamics of the foreground/background and the fields of focus. The shutter speed chosen works great, I love the textures and colors. Good exposure/contrast. In my opinion, the light triangle at the top is the only unfortunate element.

Kevin H Kevin H   {K:22502} 9/18/2004
WOW the clarity and sharpness of the picture just amazes me. Also long the angle at which you took it at, it almost makes it feel as if you there (looks 3d). Keep up the good work.

I totally agree with you. Great shot. I've got two or three similar shots at home. Couldn't resist it. Just the force of that water when it thunders past you... Incredible...
