Hunua Falls. Shot through a Cokin Infrared Filter. I had something completely different in mind for this challenge that also included water. After google searching water cliches, I came across this old cliche & it just seemed to fit this photograph so well although I probably should of included a bit more water at the bottom of the water fall. I had only bought the infrared filter the day before this photograph was taken.

It's an interesting saying, but the waterfall doesn't really illustrate it for me. That said, it's a very interesting shot the way you've shifted the colors to give it that eerie, otherworldly quality.

I don't know where the hell is in this shot... but I really like the composition and the unusual use of color - nice job

This photo seems extremely over processed. For me the connection could have been made with a nicely saturated in natural colors. The processing takes away.
