roberta and lisa, thank you for you comments. it was a really sunny day so I decided to do some "detail" shooting instead of "the big picture" (which I normally do)... I guess it worked out... again, thank you. #6530133

Very nice Matthew, I really like the sharpness of the rock and the power of the water you captured very well. Job well done.:) #6540968

excellent veiling. did you use any filters like NDs? I like that there are no blown out areas #6544794

Matthew M. Sciortino October 02, 2008

Aggie, the only filter I used was my polarizer. This Rock was in the shaded part of the creek, so I concentrated on it rather than the whole creek (which was a pretty powerful waterfall) because of the intensity of the sun. #6544894

Well thought out. Well taken. Love those polarizers! #6545325

Gorgeous Image! Details of the textures of the rock while still getting the silky feel to the water. Impressive. #6553824
