What an awesome capture Terry, you can almost hear the roar of the falls. #1654763

Well-exposed to give great contrast & texture to the pounding water, as lighting looked tricky. Inclusion of person gives the viewer a real perspective of the size of these amazing falls! Great execution, Terry :) #11460076
