_____Random Info
   On the last evening before returning home SvenMueller and I stopped by the village Zweisimmen, Switzerland next to the Siebenbrunnen Falls and headed up the slopes before setting up our tent at the near by camping grounds. This picture shows the Simmenfalls located on the way to the Siebenbrunnen.

   This is one of the most gloomy shots I've taken this year (thus the name) and I have to say I'm very proud of it. Also I have to say that I've been having a blast not only shooting this but editing it as well. I hope you enjoy this one.

Here is another shot a couple of hundred feet up the stream:

I really like this shot. The black and white looks fantastic and I really like your composition here. The fact that the major components of this piece a not dead center makes this image all the more appealing visually. The perspective of this shot is very cool as well! I really like how the water looks in this. It gives off a feeling of serenity as well as a feeling of power. Waterfalls are one of my favorite subjects for photography and I really enjoyed looking at, as well as critiquing your work. This is a very good representation of a waterfall and I like the emotion that it draws up in me, as a viewer. Great work!
