 This is a photo of Tews falls in Hamilton, Ontario. It was quite the effort to get to the falls through forest and river.

I really need to invest in a wide angle lens. I couldn't fit everything I wanted to in the shot from where I was. I tried other positions, but this spot worked best for me. I wish I had tilted the camera slightly higher, as I would prefer to have some more negative space above the top of the falls.

This photo will be used for the "Better Than Average" side tournament. For me to advance to the second round, it will need an average of 5.7546.

This photo is dedicated to my lens cap which unfortunately fell into a raging river that very day.
