Koosah Falls along the Mckenzie river is the largest of the three main waterfalls. It was raging from all the spring melt off. The water stays a consistant dark blue all year round. This is a little wider view from my previous upload. I like the other one more, but you can see all of the rays in this one so I decided to process it too. Hope everyone had a good weekend.

Hi Skyler... i do like both versions, though I may try to add a little texture to the bottom of the falls. Nice capture!

I kinda like this one better because of all the foreground, and the way the moss is let on the left.
nice work Skyler.

Dude what the hell. This is so good! Maybe clone out that bright green fern on the right though, I'm finding it distracting. This is freaking incredible.

They're all great; I lean towards the second one also, because the rays accent the falls. In the first one, the eye is drawn immeditely to the bright area of the sky. Both terrific though.
