Seljalandsfoss, Shoot at midnight in fog and rain,
An unique waterfall in the river Seljalandsá, about 30 km from Skógar. It is 40 metres high with a foot path behind it at the bottom of the cliff, but with a thin cascade. It is the only known waterfall of its kind, where it is possible to walk behind it. Access to the waterfall is from the farm of Seljaland along the Ring Road, Iceland's main highway. A little further to the west there are several other falls, among them the interesting Gljúfrabúi which is partially masked by its own canyon. Access to it is from Hamragarðar farm along the road, east of Markarfljót.

(Yes I know about the trash under the seat I didn't see it when I shoot the photo :O)

The top is cropped of just a little bit, that gives the illusion of the water spouting up, rather than down.. But the image is so well captured, that it didnt take away from my vote-- A top 5-- Good Luck
The lush green in this is so beautiful, and the water is so smooth, very well done, technically. It doesn't really say speed to me but I'll give it an 8.
It's an interesting composition - the peace offered by the seat with the motion offered by the fountain. It's probably not the best representation of speed, but still an interesting photo.
White thing in front of the chair needs moving, something wrong happening at the top (perhaps the white border hasnt helped). Otherwise its quite good.
in a weird way it almost looks like a fountain shooting up instead of comming down. the bench makes this photo much more interesting and adds to the overall perspective which is lost in many photos i see here. good job.
Nice photo. The water looks great that soft looking. I like the lonely bench there, but I'm not sure what that white thing is there beside it. But that could be easily edited out =)
Excellent! What would have been a little better is, shooting the shot from a few more feet to the right. That would keep the bench in the same place but position the water fall more the right (not as centered). Very nice!
Taken from a different angle, or at a different time of day, this could be an impressive shot, unfortunately the over-exposure and lens flare have caused the majority of the detail to be lost
Nice photo, you should have tried to include the entire spout of water instead of cutting it off at the top. Though I see that the lighting at the height was becoming a problem.
this is a gorgeous shot but gives me the feeling of tranquility/peace/silence rather than speed. Tiny bit overexposed at the top but otherwise good colors. Just doesn't meet the intent of the challenge for me = 3
