Not the most dramatic of falls, but very pretty, even in the wet -

And a pano version, which suffers a bit from wideangleyness, but what the heck -

Hehe, yeah. You get people turning up and wandering straight past trying to find the 'falls', especially in dry weather. This is about as big as they get!

Awesome location! I really really like the pano! You have a tiny bit of white showing on the top edge left of middle.

The orange/green colour contrast is excellent!

Sorry Scott, missed your post. Thanks very much for the comments - the pano I'm still not completely sold on if I'm honest, but it might work well as a triple canvas or something. I had to push the processing s bit to get the oranges to pop - it was raining heavily when shooting and everything was very brown. I'd been there in the dry the day before and they were really bright, but I was sadly lacking a tripod.

I've had another look at these and think perhaps the water needs brightening a touch - anyone have a preference?

Nice- I prefer the brightened water. The brown striations in the water add a cool dynamic.

Cheers Simon,

These were taken 3 weeks ago. The weather was foul then as well and I managed to head out with only half a battery charge so didn't make it was far as the largest falls. The first shot here was the only one I got of that spot before the battery died,

Thanks. There was quite a lot of water flowing, so only need a 1" shutter to get a decent amount of movement - CPL did the trick, no ND filter needed.

Tom, I prefer the original versions here; with the lightening, you've lost the subtleness of the light on mossy rocks, and in the water as well...makes them seem more like midday shots.
