Bravo! Magnificent landscape excellently composed and exposed. The long exposure is perfectly measured and the pale lines of flowing water in the foreground are of the best effect.

ANOTHER winner, Jay!

Excellent realization. My compliments!

Beautiful, colors, details, the layers of the rock, nice.

Very nice treatment; gorgeous, believable colors.

 

Wonderful details and light...the reflections of the water has come out excellently...

Looks great.

Jay, I see you have been on another trip to a magical place. I love the wealth of textures and light in the foreground leading to the small fall.

Beautiful composition and very pleasing shot. The only nit gritty critique I have is to dodge the upper right corner little bit. The area left to fall is also little dark but is rather less noticeable due to the fall, but might as well be a good idea to dodge there.

Jay,

 

Like all your work just beautiful. This brings back memories-I spent many summers swimming in and I do mean in Blackwater falls. What a wonderfull spot

This one is one of my favorites!! The detail in the water and the visual flow is exciting. Another stunner for your polished portfolio.

Jay--Your composition here could not be any better. I can look at this scene and see that I would have never come up with this composition, which is why you are far better than me! I love how the waterfall is placed in the upper left and you are far enough away to make it appear just the right size. Furthermore, your colors and saturation are superb. Exposures at waterfalls (in my experience) can be a nightmare because of the shadowns from trees, rocks, etc. You hit the nail on the head buddy! Great work!

This is a wonderful capture of one of my favorite waterfalls in West Virginia.

 

Excellent work.

 

I would like to share one of my captures of the same waterfall from last year when it was really low.
