Another of my absolute favourites which also gave me great satisfaction when I saw the results especially after having gotten myself into this hole along with gear and heavy tripod.It was late afternoon light that caught both waterfall and cliff-face,and combined with a slow shutter speed I achieved this shot.Getting out was another story though.<br />Dennis Hardley Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08505835504246175247noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2669833569222604654.post-62023347636959253222012-11-13T15:40:00.004+00:002012-11-13T15:40:58.991+00:00autumn in the trossachs<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
