hey Jack,

Nice snap !!!
Was the FOCUS on the stone in right corner?
as i see blur and kind of out of focus effect on the water in left . May be you tried a different approach to DOF ?

Was that intentional?

Have we been here before, I'm sure I recognise this beautiful waterfall.
I like how you've focussed in on the quietest water, and then gradually allowed the focus to fade as we move round to the left and faster water, its an excellent effect Ian, well done

We have Beach, it's from Grindstone falls .. I actually did a quick HDR / merge of 3 exposures in Photomatix and it produced this ..

Ian, don't you just love it when an "accidently, on purpose" works out so well. Beautiful.
