Thank you very much. But I already have my shot of Rainbow Falls at Watkins Glen on the wall. I try to keep it to one image per location due to lack of space. You could buy a copy and hang it on your wall?


Often wonder about that scenario. Do photographers buy other photographers prints?
I don't have enough wall in my house for mine!

For the record I admire many photographers work but I do not hang it in my home. I have to rotate my photos ( my family insists) It is not that they don't like the ones hanging it is just that I keep taking more.

The ones I take down a donate to a nearby nursing home to help brighten up the place. They just switch out the ones they already have. Some of the residents take the old ones to put in their rooms.

Great idea! Do you give them the frames also?

I gave them the frames the first time--actually pretty nice ones. Now they just swap prints and sell some of them to family of the people staying there. So they are making a little slush fund out of it. They usually sell the prints for $25 or more if the bid goes up so everyone is happy.

A lot of the people there like to see images of places they remember from their childhood and when I travel I even take requests for places I may pass enroute and take photos of things they want to see. It makes them smile and that is all I care about.

That’s a pretty one, Larry. I’m not generally a big fan of cotton candy water, but this one is nice.

I think it works here because of the contrast between the water and the rugged rocks. Water drops from a fast shutter would just get lost in the rough texture of the cliff walls and also would not be as bright because there was not all that much water. The time exposure allowed the water to build up volume.

Thanks for looking.

Wow, that’s a beauty in download. A wall hangar for sure.
