Description
After experiencing the heaviest rain in ten years, this past April, the waterways of the South Island of New Zealand were abundant; creeks and streams overflowing, and waterfalls pouring freely; you'd think there was a neverending water supply.Presented here is the base of the magnificent Matai Falls in the lush dense temperate rainforest of the The Catlins on the south coast of the South Island.
Processed whilst listening to Opeth's magnum opus Blackwater Park.

Thanks, again!

The tones have come out quite pleasing, I must admit. The print of this on semi-gloss paper just looks amazing.
Cheers.

I noticed the picture, then the title. Absolutely stunning, it feels like you're underground in a cave, I assume it's simply vingette.
Big thumbs up for the Swedish masters!

Fuzzypiggy,
No digital vignetting applied here other than the one inherent in that sensor/lens/focal length/aperture combination. The fall is about 10 metres high and is secluded by lush temperate forest, so, that's why it's dark there.
I've just submitted another rendition in landscape format you might like to check out -- it's in colour, too.
Glad you enjoyed the image, and, the referene to the Swedish masters.

pestilence,
Thanks, mate.
Yeah, the coloured version was rather bland from this angle. I will get around to processing my other takes of this magical location. Some will be in colour, whilst, others may also get the monotonic treatment.

Great shot
