is absolutely fantastic. The dramatic clouds make that a wallhanger for sure!

Chris…Looks to me like you continue to out do yourself…That shot of the fast moving water is another one as you say…“wall hanger”. Does that have just a bit of extended lens opening to get the total white water effect…

Quentin,

Thanks as always for the kind words! [:I] If I remember right, it’s around 1.5 to 2 seconds shutter opening. It’s a shot of the cascades leading up to Tower Falls in Yellowstone. I was actually up in that area of the park looking for a Black Bear family (a sow and two cubs). While I saw them, there wasn’t much light to get decent pictures of them. Since I had no light for that, I figured some tripod-mounted water shots were in order.

The RAW image of this is a little bland, but this tweaked B/W version looked nice to me. I’ve got another version that I super-saturated the greens on, and it looks kind of cool, too.

At any rate, thanks for the comments. Sorry about the slow response, too. Missed your comment until I was looking through old posts.
