Die Lore-Lay

[Octane (Humayun)]

She sits atop a cliff, combing the golden braid that is her hair, unwittingly distracting shipmen to their demise with her beauty and her song.

A fall in Milford Sound with afternoon light.

Nice bit of verse H, pretty good picture too

[Vanda (Ian)]

The reproduction does not do the original justice. Looks to be a great shot.

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Lovely work H.

[SkyViking (Rolf)]

I think this is a really great shot H. I love the soft rays of light on the falls. Very well captured as usual. Thanks for the view

[Bassnut (Fred)]

Sublime H, excellent

[Ric]

A lovely capture H.

The rays of sunlight really set it off.

[troypiggo (Troy)]

Perfect execution of a tricky exposure. Who da man? You da man!

[Octane (Humayun)]

Michael,

Thanks!

Ian,

No doubt. It was the first thing that came to mind when I saw the image on my LCD after capturing it. Cheers!

Ric,

Glad you noticed the light. If the light wasn't there, I wouldn't have made that image.

Troy,

Ah-hah, someone who sees how difficult it is to make these images. Cheers, mate.
