Hey, it took me two months now to finalize the I took at a nearby .

It was one of the rare times where I dedicated a couple of hours to just one spot. I wrote a bit about that day and made the photos available for prints

I hope you enjoy them!

@hikingdude Those are beautiful, Franz! I like how you showed the falls at different ranges, featuring different aspects of the falls.

@TimKStanton
Thank you Tim 🙏
I'm really happy how they turned out and that you like them.

I would have loved to test 2 more perspectives. But for the first I would have had to climb on very slippery rocks and for the other I would have had to go in the pretty cold water.

But still I was surprised how much time I spent there to get those photos.

@hikingdude Yeah, I know what you mean about how long it takes to take these types of photos. I see this process as the "pot of gold" that I discover on a trip, rather than something that slows me down on the way to some arbitrary destination.
I've also been very tempted to venture out where I shouldn't to get another angle/distance. I've probably had more slips and falls from taking photos than from the actual hike! Trying hard to rein myself in during these situations.

@TimKStanton
Haha, life of a photographer can be more dangerous than expected!

"Just one more step, or another one, or ano...WHOA that was close!"

But you're right. I'm just thinking about .. Was it @m4nuel? "Sometimes it's more about the process than the result."

Even if I would have returned without a good photo from that spot, I enjoyed a couple of hours, I trained myself and I learned a lot.

(and I was out and about 😀)

@fizzlebah
Thank you very much Diane. Very much appreciated 🙏

@rcr
Thank you ❤️ very much appreciated.

@hikingdude Very nice pictures. I'm also a big fan of waterfalls 😀

@DG5TW
Thank you Thomas! 🙏
I still wonder why we are so attracted by waterfalls.
