Taken at Horsetail Falls along the Columbia River Highway in late spring/early summer of 2005. One of my favorite waterfalls in an area where they are highly accessible and quite abundant.

This picture is very nice but the first thing that popped into my head when I saw it was 'density filter'. Longer exposure would have made so much difference.
Nicely done, with one exception. The light on the falls is just a little too bright. You lose definition there, and it looks more like a giant streak of eraser brush on white canvas than water-flow.
Nice light. The water is maybe a touch overexposed, but I'd take that over having those details in the stone underexposed. I really like the way the tree is part of the image. The crop on the splash feels a little tight.
Is this on the Eagle Creek Trail in the Columbia Gorge? You don't need to answer that, I'll check back after the challenge is over.
Good old Columbia Basin. Great capture for a falls I've never thought was that "aesthetic". Horsetail runs so strong and narrow it's hard to get any definition to the water. You did well. 7
