At least I think this is Berlyn Falls. As we left Kruger NP we again encountered rainfall and this limited our enthusiasm for getting out of the car and getting the cameras wet. The falls can only be reached from the top so angles are limited and we were rushing to get to Pretoria before nightfall. There are many falls in Sabie area, sadly we did not have time to visit them all (excuse to go back?) :)

Cracking shots again Neil, and having the link to the large photo certainly helps to appreciate them in all their glory.

Cheers John, I didn't include a link to the first one as a large version as it is slightly softer than I would like, was windy as well as rainy, don't mind admitting I was rushing between shots to keep the kit dry.

Neil, you sure do get to photograph some spectacular waterfalls. Thanks for including a larger image. The textures and colors in the rock wall are really interesting. Is the color of that river typically brown and muddy looking?

These are fantastic Neil, I really like both compositions, the motion was captured just right with the whites being white, and the rest of the colors are nice and rich. Well done, you are the waterfall king. ;)

Since I don't live in the area I can't say, but there had been heavy rains in the few days previous so I am thinking the river is just a bit swollen. Cheers J.T.

I love to get down to the waters edge and find leading angles, but I am not a rock climber :| Cheers D.
