Nice one Ron.  Just as I remember the sides of Milford Sound (on the West Coast, NZ).

Wow Ron, gorgeous!

When i was there (2004), they had the largest dry spell ever, no rain, no mist, no (hardly any) waterfalls. Still a memorable visit.

This one has everything i would have liked, along with your talent  :D

Thank you everyone.  This rainfall marked the end of a long dry spell.  It produced a moody looking bay as well.  When we headed north the next day the road was blocked by tree falls and we experienced delays.

Ron:

I like the repeating diagonal lines, the sense of depth , framing.

Very nice.  NZ is on the bucket list.  There briefly many years ago, need to return.

Thanks for being inspirational!

Randy

Excellent composition, Ron.  I love the lines, the textures, the colors, and the overall balance.

I am so thankful the members here like this because it was one cold wet boat ride despite being in the middle of their summer.

Beautiful atmosphere, the fog, the waterfalls, the light. I like it a lot.

Very well done Ron.  The water coming of the mountain reminds me of the Isle of Mull but the mountain doesn't reach the sea.
Thanks for sharing
Tom

It is definitely always a cold and wet boat ride over at Milford Sound no matter what the season.  I have been drenched on all of my visits there, and most have been in summer.
