Change is a constant in nature… as contradictory as that may sound. These beautiful falls in Havasu Canyon are no longer flowing. A flash flood in 2008 changed the landscape irrevocably. But there’s good news too. The sudden change in flow created two new waterfalls in the area! I can’t wait to return to photograph the area again!
I used the small ridge in the foreground as a leading line to direct the viewers attention to the falls. It was a partly-cloudy day, so I waited for the sun to go down behind the mountain before taking this shot. I used a circular polarizer to cut through the glare and bring out the rich colors in the water.
I really like the way you use the wide angle lens to help you get both perspective and allowing a nice subtle leading line to bring you into the falls. Great shot!!!
Great picture ,and I see the ridge you are talking about.To bad about the falls not being there any more,but you do have a keeper here in this photoKeep up the great work.
