The second shot is fantastic, Stan.

The clarity and sharpness is spot on.

Was this with your 24-105?

Yeah, the sun was just starting to hit the gorge, presenting a bit of a challenge. I appreciate your comment.

Hi Stan. You are really mastering waterfalls and these are great ones. I really like the way the first one emphasizes the power of the falls.

I certainly appreciate your comment, Don. With the number of waterfalls we visited in VA, MD, WV and NC, my technique should be improving. I do enjoy seeing and shooting waterfalls.

Great shots Stan. Shutter speed on both is spot-on, IMO. Really liking #1

Very nice, I'm partial to #1. The little details in #1 are what makes it my favorite, like the green fading under the waterfall.
