Description i stopped off last May at Emerald Bay, lake tahoe to shoot this waterfall just after the sun dropped from a long day of shooting a little wedding. it was so beautiful at night. but when i got home and looked at these images on the computer they were crap in color. everything was way too blue & dark or the moon was way too bright on the longer exposures. luckily i had a little angel come up with the idea of turning it black & white. almost a year later i have this shot. thank you so much sunshine! this sold at my first show a few weeks ago. it was a wonderful feeling. sorry i've been away from dA, life has been crazy busy and so so so good! is it time for a vacation yet?!

run, matt nathanson ft sugarland [link] on repeat ā™„

thank you jonny!

i see it now... i had it in my head only in color & it was such a roadblock but Iā€™m learning to look further at what a piece may bring besides what you originally see...

Oh wow Emily...it does look stunning in black and white. (and of course... congrats on the sale. )
It has a bit of a sad aura too it (could be me projecting ), but beautiful none-the-less. The trees...scrabbling hard to grow. Love it, dear.
Great job!!

Thank you Jessica!

yeah totally agree, it does have this eerie sadness to it at top but i think the bottom brings a little equilibrium to that with it's smooth waters being so peaceful...
