An aqua duotone manip of the Passaic Falls in my home town of Paterson, N.J...The name "Passiac" (which is the name of the county in which Paterson is the seat of) comes from an old indian term meaning "People of the Land of the Falling Water"...The Falls aren't that big...but they were a natural source of water power for early textile mills that had set up business in the area during the post-revolutionary early days of the United States...

Great commentary and quite an effective manip Ron but it looks such a well taken image that I'd really like to see it in it's original colours, pretty please:)

The photo alone would be great and what you did with it make the whole thing even greater. Wonderful work on this.

What a wonderful decision to do this in aqua. I love the way you made the background design continue with the shape of the bridge. I like the frame too. You are simply very creative and this is a wonderful example of your fine design.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

The eye of a camera looks into the beauty of all that has been created by God for mankind to see, protect, and preserve for the future generations.
