Minnehaha Falls

This little jewel of a place is in South Minneapolis.
It has been photographed 10's of thousands of times.
This is my take....I wanted to go way dark so I did as I printed yesterday.
Thanks for looking!

It takes courage to be this singular. Excellent rendering of a too often photographed site. You captured the essence of it wonderfully.
 
Well done, Steve. I love how those deep shadows brings out what's important and also visually anchor the picture. At the same time it adds a nice sense of mystery. Love it.
 
I love how the darkness is pierced by the light of the flowing water. Excellent shot. I wonder what this image would look like if you (almost) cropped the image by removing the waterfall for 2/3rd part or more (top and left side)? This way you get more focus on the flowing water.Just a thought.
 
Looked good from the thumbnail and didn't disappoint when seen full sized - great vision and printing.
