This is heading to create Toketee Falls, which we will see tomorrow. It is an HDR shot.

Am3 #@$%& - I am finding that it is consistently difficult to do anything on Am3 early in the morning on the West Coast. Since this is the best time for me to be on the computer, my commenting is quite inhibited. If you don't hear from me, that more often than not is the reason.

Nikon D700 1/13 second F/11.0 ISO 200 45 mm (35mm equiv.)

Gorgeous colours. I love the the water - it reminded me of blue ink.
PS:I'm so glad I'm not the only one struggling with AM3 - I thought it was only me. It takes me forever to post comments - that's why I'm running behind this week.

Amazing view point!

Noting ventured nothing gained.

@Theys monochrome.: I posted comments on your photographs, but they don't appear.

amy from Nanaimo, BC, Canada

It's so fantastical (that is a word isn't it?). The high saturation of the colour from the HDR is so scrumptious!

20 Oct 2010 12:39am

@amy: I think that I actually toned down the saturation a bit.
