Description A nice and secluded area, nothing beats wading in the cool waters of a waterfall stream in the afternoon. Even better, I later traveled upwards a bit further up and took a nice cool dip in a natural pool above the waterfall.

It felt like a jacuzzi

I like how you used a longer shutter speed, it makes the water look much more mellow. Just about as perfect as you can get.

ekster In reply to dunvood [2006-04-13 15:28:33 +0000 UTC]

Thanks so very much! Longer shutter speeds are definitely fun, I stood there with the cable release for about a minute and a half while enjoying the quiet surroundings Quite relaxing overall!

It was quite the lovely evening, although there were no stars in the sky, but that gave me a chance to gaze more on the water's reflection

you're welcome

Eka, i know you're busy man but i've got a question...
i'm pretty desperate because i'd like to have a new website but i don't know anyone who could do it...
it's nothing big or fancy...just a site to promote my portfolio, and maybe have a guestbook and a forum...
do you know anyone who could do it? *hint*

i hope you're doing fine these days

ekster In reply to thedraperyfalls [2006-04-11 16:57:06 +0000 UTC]

All is well thankfully

A simple portfolio site eh? There's definitely quite a few ways of going about it, and I've seen some neat packages that you could get that has a bunch of the basic usable features that folks use 99% of the time. I myself am thinking of migrating to one of these, as I realize I sorely need to update my own personal portfolio since it just looks so... dated! If I come across an easy solution, I'll definitely let you know!

thank you so much Eka

It's been yonks since I last went to any waterfalls. You brought me memories of how my dad carried me on his shoulder because I was just too afraid of the cold water.

ekster In reply to phrantyx [2006-04-10 05:55:38 +0000 UTC]

Aww its nice to have those kinds of memories come back every now and then The water was indeed cold, but after a minute or two my body adjusted and I was alright It's definitely more comfortable than the time I swam in 40F degree water (about 4 C I think) a couple years back.

awww... with the weather here in my country being unbearably hot, i truly wished your larger-than-life photograph was real, something i could plunge into, and come out all wet and totally refreshed! as the other said, gorgeously vivid - is it a photo that looks like a painting, or a painting that looks like a photo? LOL! don't mind my gibberish, must blame the scorching heat! anyways, excellent work, as expected, and being the "demanding" follower of yours (hehehe!), am looking forward to your next masterpiece!
