Rain Forest

by MFC

...a "minimalist/macro" impression of a wonderful tropical waterfall I visited.
The many-layered fall produced a thunderous noise that was very calming.
Filtered light streamed among the plants... the background is dolomite & volcanic rock.

Mark, the Krohn Floral Conservatory houses an actual tropical rain forest in one of its large glass pavilions. This waterfall dominates the scene, surrounded by many varieties of large tropical trees and foliage. It's fun to visit & take in all the sights and sounds. MFC

I really love this one, MFC. The "rain dance" going on at the surface is awesome!
I also love that you intentionally left the leaf in the image (others might have
cloned it out) because it adds a beautiful color contrast and perspective. Could
you tell us where this image was photographed? Mark J

I like the dance going on on top of the fall!

Simply gorgeous. The water falling with the minimal background makes for an extremly effective photograph.

I love the leaf element included, it finishes off the image. - Shay

Great detail of the falls and beautiful light. Like also the way you used the leave in the composition, it adds interest and depth. Willem
