Wow....i didnt ride it but i did walk it and i took the big camera. I had to take my shoes off and roll my pants up just to cross those little rivers that usually have about 2-3cm of water, never seen water like this before!!! The quality of the photos should still be good but i had to limit them to 2mb apposed to 13mb

Do you have more information?

Crossing the water i could hardly walk across the small rivers. As soon as i put my foot in front of the other one i end up crossing my legs, so much power!!!!! photo 1,2,3 where the first river coming down the cascades from acron oval. Then the next few photos are middle harbour catchment. Then the last photo is the bare creek river just before it connects to the cascades track.

So its not just the water

There a some good photos there and a few that need work.

What sort of camera are you using?

You need to work on the point you are focusing on and depth of field.

Number 9

Number 9 is pretty nice - I like the moving water...

... but bet it would look even better from below the waterfall. Why didn't you climb down, haven't you been paying attention to Man vs. Wild?

lol

Defiantly couldn't climb down, besides it being extremely slippery, there was nowhere to climb down A few are not completely in focus because i was holding the camera by hand (no tripod unfortunatly) and im not that steady i was shooting at an f-stop of anywhere between 10 - 22 because there was a lot of light, and at a shutterspeed of about 1/9 - 1/16/sec so i could get that flowing effect of the water so that's why there was a bit of a focus issue.
