I had to vote for this in the challenge, so pretty there..

Congrats on the top in the challenge. I have a number of images of Watkins Glen myself. My version is at http://www.redbubble.com/people/rengel134/art/2544267-4-falls-at-watkins-glen. I intentionally left some people in there to give it some scale, but I like your’s better.

Congrats on the win in th All Water in Motion Bridges challenge, Jeffery.
Excellent shot !!

Well then, a big CONGRATULATION is in order. The first one is always so special !!
I know exactly how you feel. We won our first challenge this weekend too. lol.

A huge congrats for your challenge win and feature. This is truly a beautiful capture and well deserving of the win!

Beautiful! Congratulations on your feature!

congrats on win and feature. Well deserved…

Very beautiful place, well captured!

It truly is Tony! Very well done, and definately worth the wait to get this shot. : )

A great image. One for my faves.

Incredibly beautiful image!!!!

WOW I just love this shot, what can I say except absolutely amazing.

Richly deserved recognition for this fabulous image! Some day, some day, I hope to experience it in person. Thanks for having such patience to get exactly this shot!

Great shot for sure. im not far away in ithaca. i visited this gorge for the first time just last week. i didnt make it look this good though.

An unreal fairyland taken with superb artistry! I used to live in NY and have visited this area. It really is beautiful!

Perection ! JD

that was supposted to be PERFECTION !!! Sorry…

Wow Jeffrey, this is a truly glorious shot, and an instant favorite. Beautiful job!

Quite a beauty for sure! Amazing image…well done! Sweet! :)

It is sensational, beautiful work Jeffrey!

Just spectacular!

Such a wonderful capture! Makes me want to return to the Glen for a hike – and quite possibly a dip! :) I’ve just ordered three in the mounted format, two will be gifts. I must also give thanks to Nori Bucci, for having flagged this as a fav of hers, which brought it to my attention.

Jeffrey. I would’ve gone bigger, but the only option online was for 8×12. I’m not really an artist, just a shopper here, so please excuse my ignorance, but is it possible to order these bigger, or was your 20×30 a custom job of your own?

Greatly expanding on my “bigger” idea, how lovely a wall mural this shot would make! Resolution-wise, would such require re-capturing the scene all over again? RB doesn’t yet seem to cover this area (wall murals). As a guy who’s way-high-tech, I remain ignorant in the art world as to what it will take (in Megapixels) to accomplish such a thing. Is it doable?

Perfect representation of this exact spot! Absolutely worth the wait!

Waterfalls Challenge

My god what a shot!!! Absolutly stunning my friend!!
Cheers, Forrest & Camellia T.

Wow, it took me a long time to scroll all this way down!! :) What a gorgeous image!!!! Just perfect! Looks like such an amazing place!!
