Cascades, Upper Proxy Falls

Mid-August 2000, on a bright, sunny day, mostly filtered by the forest

canopy above.

Very nice picture indeed... Just curious, any filters applied or it?s just the shadow effect? Regards, Bogdan

Thanks for the comment, Bogdan. No filters at all. If you're referring to the blue in the water, that's just the natural color cast of blue sky, which Velvia tends to punch a bit when there are strong greens in the scene. This was actually intentional. When I first composed the scene, I put a warming filter on the camera, but changed my mind before ever making an exposure. I'd noticed Velvia's tendency to do this a few months earlier, and had wanted to try using it consciously.

Hi John

 

Thank you first for your comment on my stairway picture. I love the colors in this shot. It's a beautiful picture. Congratulations on achieving the effect you were looking for with this shot. It has a beautiful cool and warm quality to it all in the same shot.

 

Regards,

Sumptuous shot... I can hear the water cascading. You really caught the moment. Such a nice shot!
