Eglinton's Melodious Cascades

I happened upon this stunning cascade in the Eglinton River Valley. It took me a little while to climb down the embankment to reach a position which was suitable for framing this gorgeous scene.

Viewers may discern cyan-turquoise highlights in the cascade; whilst the water is generally clear, the highlights are caused by glacial melt over time.

The sound of the water was very dynamic; from big and bold rushes to faint little trickles.

1s f/16.0 at 17.0mm iso100

Slightly larger version found here.

Comments and critique, welcome.
