This is real sweet. The long exposure produced some great atmosphere and those greens are luscious!
Huge Thank You Dave! One of those rare times when an experiment works. Happy New Year!

Awesome shot. I love the color palette.
Thank you Roshisan! I worked hard at keeping it more restrained here.

What I love about this image the most is the restraint you had to freeze all motion in the leaves. It looks to me that the shrub between the falls and the big tree has some motion blur. Myself, and probably most others, know you could have used a technique to freeze it, but I love that you gave this image some more dynamic life by preserving the blur.
Thank you for the feedback here. Yeah, I took this so many years back, that technique was rarely known (I think Marc Adamus was starting to pioneer it about then). But, even though it is sort of a rule for photographers to freeze foliage... like other photographers, I like to break rules too. If some of it is moving a little here and there it does not really bug me. When a lot of it is moving, that is another thing...
All the best to you and thank you very much for the encouragement! Happy New Year!
