Default The force of nature

Saturday hubby 'Steves Shots' and I went to Raglan for the day, we stopped at this magnificent waterfall, Bridal Veil Falls. The falls are 55 metres high and after a good rain (which we've had plenty of lately) the force of water going over the edge is spectacular to hear and watch.

Thanks for looking.

Great shots Angela - yes the recent rainfall creates opportunities to capture these shots with the waterfalls at their best. Well done. Cheers, Bernz

That's a really nice waterfall Angela, you really captured it well for us viewers to get the feeling of being there. TFS

I love this set Angela. You have captured them so well, showing the detail in the rock formations as well as the actual falls. Keep 'em comin'.
