Wow, the overall richness of this photo is staggering. Usually photos taken in the forest like this look completely flat and busy, but this has really captured a sense of depth.
The sharpness of the mosses contrasted with the smoothness of the falls make this pleasing to me (and I'm not a fan of waterfalls in general). But what gives it the "quietude" is the branch in the foreground. Kinda zenlike.
