    I also don't do landscapes. But I can try. This is a Topaz production all the way - DeNoise, Detail, and Simplify. Captured using a three-stop ND filter (ND8) to get the shutter speed down to 1/4 sec.

    I don't see why you don't do landscapes, this is gorgeous! Perfect filter work and the exposure looks perfect too!

    This is really, really, superb Kerry! Love the light play and textures on the water, rocks and foilage and you captured a perfect softness to the flow. Awesome camera & filter work.

    Kerry, this is fantastic....the soft, silky presence of the falls....the dappling of light across the scene...wonderful colors and textures in the rocks and leaves....really, really nice work with the filters...very nice composition. What's next in your list of "I don't do..." images?

    Makes me want to be there, Kerry! Love the balanced comp, highlights and painterly qualities. Very artistic.

    Hi Kerry... Nice comp and good use of filters. On average when I shoot flowing water I try for 1/4 sec also. If this were mine I might evict the small clipped flowers on the upper left...

    Excellent! I love the transparency of the water and being able to see the rocks behind. Beautiful light. The splash of color on the left work nicely. Agree about deleting the little flowers at top. Nice initial image and post processing work.

    As soon as I opened the image my first thought was "Wouldn't it be nice if this is what heaven looks like..." Seriously - so serene and beautiful - you really outdid yourself!

    Kerry, I love the Simplify on this one. Great looking comp. It kind of reminds me of a beautiful, peaceful water garden. Another vote to evict the little flowers ULC.

    Hi Kerry, I think you should do more landscapes. I really like this comp and the treatment is beautifully done. Agree on clipped flowers, but otherwise perfect!
