Terrific post Ruby. The depth and textures are amazing. The composition and fall colors in the background add a lovely feeling to this beautiful view. Very well done and so glad you shared this one.
Can't always give individual thanks but I am so appreciative of everyone's comments and input. I truly enjoy seeing all of your posts and am always happy to see you at My Gallery. Thanks, Anita
Well done Ruby. Your first attempt is a smashing sucess! Great color and clarity. I also like the perspective on this shot.. Wonderful post my friend.. Thanks
Most people never run far enough on their first wind to find out they've got a second. Give your dreams all you've got and you'll be amazed at the energy that comes out of you.
The glassy line of the top of the water was a wonderful choice in presenting this. It's so easy to get above a falls and try to take the water sliding over it from that perspective, but this is a special view, and does not pick up on any of the distractions that sometimes arise when taken from a different angle. Seeing all that smooth water just waiting its turn to splash over the edge creates movement, excitment and a visual edge that is enriching. The speed with which you picked up the water on its course from one elevation to the next, down, down ever closer to the foreground creates a creamy flow that I've seen and enjoyed before. This sort of treatment is best suited to a dreamy type of post that creatively plays with the water and turns it into its own work of art. The clarity you present elevates the gentle color from the trees in the background to the strong images of the stone off the screen and opens it for full enjoyment. Even though the composition slightly leans off to the right a bit horizontally, the natural positioning of the rock and the angle is well deserving of a high five for construction. Speaking of construction...where's the bridge? ..lol.....Nicely done :)PJ
What a unique perspective. Were you down in the water? I'm not sure I get the title. Love the eye level view of the lake's surface. This is really different. Good focus. Nice work.

Excellent capture Ruby and I really like the way you have slowed the shutter speed to get the motion effect on the water. WELL DONE and thank you for sharing, Don
You were really eye to eye with this weren't you Ruby?. Such a wonderful perspective here.All of the colors in this are so pretty especially the trees. Very nicely composed. It has been a treat to view and comment on this.
This is just gorgeous Ruby! I love the rich, deep colors and the composition really shows off the grandeur of this spectacular scene. Clarity and detail are outstanding.
You sure it's your first attempt? You've done GREAT.. i had a few attempts on something like that.. but with no luck... but i'll get there.. someday.. when i'm older :)) Great capture
