Wow - amazing colors and textures - love it. Congrats!

9/25/2012 4:43:58 AM

Thanks so much! I'm thrilled this one advanced; it was a hard shoot---way too bright for a long exposure, and I didn't have an ND filter to help cut the light. (The original capture is quite bright, but luckily was not totally blown out in the highlights.)

9/25/2012 6:21:36 AM

This looks almost like a section of a Chuhily piece of art glass. Thank you for the detailed information about the formations and for mentioning that you didn't use a filter (that helps me learn for my water shots.)

9/25/2012 7:21:46 AM

AMAZING finalist, Christopher- congrats & good luck!

9/25/2012 9:22:34 AM

What an extraordinary place. Congratulations, Chris.

9/25/2012 10:47:52 AM

Spectacular finalist. The feeling of motion is wonderful.

9/25/2012 8:09:12 PM

Thank you so much!
Kathy, if you have a chance to get a ND filter, or a variable ND, they are a lot of fun to explore, and extremely useful for slowing down the shutter to get "veiled" waterfalls.

9/26/2012 4:02:36 AM

Very well done and Congratulations!

9/27/2012 9:42:58 AM

Thanks, Errick!

9/27/2012 12:50:18 PM

9/27/2012 1:12:25 PM

WOWZA - this is truly spectacular, Chris! Amazing graphic designs and patterns in the rocks and the colors are so rich and saturated...the addition of the water veiling sends this over the top! Fabulous abstract...and thanks for all that great info, too! Super Congratulations...bet we see it with Gold next!
