All taken at Whangarei Falls, Northland, New Zealand.

It's a stunning place and a really nice walk. Taking shots at the bottom of the falls is a nightmare because of all the spray.

CC welcome.

Beautiful shots. The first few almost look animated.

I really like #1 and 4. The B&W versions don't do it for me. Nice job overall.

Stunning, stunning shots. #2, #5 are wall hangers for me.

What would you say if I said they have?

They have ;)

I think the mist/spray has caused some kind of illusion in the shot's at the base of the falls, a little like a fake Tilt/Shift effect.

This is the original file convert to JPEG only, no other PP.

I loved it there - it was our first stop after we hired a camper van for a month. When I saw the title I wondered if you had gone down the river a bit from the bridge as I think it offers more than the falls - and you did!

Not to sure about the B&W but I like the shots up the river towards the bridge - nice one

I see what you mean. :) It's just the greens in 4 & 5 really pop and catch my eye is all.
