Beautiful Scenery at Tokettee Falls

A photo I took last year of one of the most spectacular waterfalls I've ever seen, Tokettee Falls in Oregon. The hike down to this waterfall was a little challenging, but totally worth it.

Really beautiful! The best waterfalls are usually the hardest to get to. Probably a natural consequence of water being funneled into narrow streambeds with large changes in elevation required for the falls themselves.

The rock of cliff looks really interesting, a bit geometric like the Giant's Causeway!

Beautiful shot, Bravo ~

I really like the detail in the water you were able to maintain, and not too long an exposure ending up with overly milky or misty water.

I'd agree the hike was worth it.

Copying earlier comments from the same image in the Long Exposure group....

What a wonderful image Nick. The exposure is spot on, capturing those gorgeous trails in the falls whilst maintaining sufficient detail in the turbulent water.
The image also looks sharp throughout (focus-stacked?) and I like the coloring.

If I were looking to find a flaw I would have like to see the composition panned to the right a little. This would lessen the visual weight of the rocks on the left and allow us to see the fall that is drifting out of right frame. Other than that some may comment on the branch sticking out from the lower fall but to be honest I don't see this as a negative as it is so small and makes it somewhat more natural.

Solid picture, great job!

Great shot Nick I'm glad you kept those yellows and greens under control. Exposure time looks nice as well. no complaints here.

Good image. Agree with the comments about the water - just the right amount of blurring. I also second Alan's compositional point about panning right (or cropping or zooming) to reduce the left rocks' weight in the image, interesting though the columns are.
