Waterfalls are often an invitation to meditate, to let our philosophical in thoughts flow with the water, to enjoy their “silence” and let our emotions free..
I have always been intrigued by their beauty, sounds and sheer brilliance.
Waterfalls are magical creations of nature. They really push you into the realm of such positivity due to their unending symphony. They always have that hidden message that falling won’t hurt, whether philosophically or photographically.

Mother Earth has blessed us with so many of those jewels.
Some are and will be there from inception to eternity.
Some are seasonal like the small unknown rivulets flowing peacefully through the forests or downhill.
Some are overwhelming by their size and sounds, some are mesmerizing by their structure and calm.

We, photographers tend to experiment with those beautiful natural phenomenons by creating fine art. We use neutral density filters to make them look silky or fast shutter speeds to freeze the motion. We like to have a human figure to show the scale. We take advantage of sunrises, sunsets or Northern lights to make them look even more magical. The combination of waterfalls and their surroundings give us a myriad of chances to create fantastic images. Waterfalls are one of the most photographed natural phenomena since they are - in a certain way - easy to lign up with our philosophical thoughts.
