Just a couple from this weekend

[misterx]

Between visiting Bryson City and going to the Lake Eden Arts Festival, I probably took 500 shots this weekend, so I have a lot to go through. But here are three that I managed to finish this morning before work.

Juney Whank Falls




Juney Whank in b/w... I think I like the color version better.


Tom's Branch Falls... one of many shots.

All of these are very pretty!! The last one is my favorite. How far is that from here?

[misterx.livejournal.com]

about two hours.

i like the flow of water better down the b&w image of Juney Whank (what a name!). in fact, i think i like the b&w a little better, though the colors are really nice.

the Tom's Branch Falls image is probably my favorite, if only because it's like a dance.

I let the b/w one be more about the harshness of the rocks, whereas the color one is more about the softness of the foliage. I think it's interesting that the water picks up the characteristics of the scene it's in.

I have several more of Tom's Branch, I'll have to see what turns out. I took detail shots of various parts of the fall.

I do love how you can manipulate what you want to be seen.

I look forward to whatever else you have in store to show us. :)

Beautiful shots! I love black and white photography, but I would definitely agree that waterfalls look best in color. We love waterfalls ourselves, and these photos are really nice!!!

Thanks. There are so many waterfalls in this area, it's amazing.

Gorgeous shots!!
:D
I like both color and b/w because.. they look like entirely different shots. Very cool how the colors affect the water.

The last shot is just stunning :)

I wish I could have gotten closer to the base of the last falls, that was my only regret. Unfortunately there was a river in the way.

heh, yeah, the river in the way poses problems..
