Falls Creek Falls in SW Washington. This is a triple plunge of 335 total feet, is one of the most scenic waterfall destinations in the Pacific Northwest. Unfortunately, I no longer have the technical details, but I suspect it was an exposure of 1.5 seconds.

A very nice capture of this iconic bit of scenery! I especially like the explosive effect of the water hitting the plunge pool - it really anchors your eye.

Thanks James! In the winter and spring these falls are really gushing. The noise is deafening. Thanks again for your feedback.

Gorgeous view Scott, composition, lighting, and timing are all great. 1.5 seconds seems about right for the lighting and apparent speed of the water. Appreciate your inclusion of the foreground too, which provides a nice bottom frame.
