I was able to stand very close to the impact point of this waterfall, which allowed me to use my long telephoto zoom to express its explosive appearance in great detail. I anchor the image on the abstracted rocks at bottom and fill the rest of the frame with layers of spray and massive water surges. It was late in the afternoon, and the low angle of the sun illuminates a layer of water droplets that hang suspended in time at 1/500th of a second shutter speed. This image puts the viewer where he or she could never go – into the heart of a waterfall at the very instant when the cascades finally strike the bottom.
