 I took this picture over spring break at Ocho Rios, Jamaica at the Dunn River Falls. This is an amazing place to shoot, but you'll need some insect repellent! I tripod mounted my D50 and started shooting. I did minor scratch removal from water mist and and saturated the colors.

A great slow-motion water shot but I don't feel it really meets the spirit of the challenge

A little too dark, with the colors a bit too dark as well. Good capture of the movement of the water though.

A lot of nice things happening, but maybe too many to make the composition work.

This is one of my favorite types of nature shots, but to be honest, I don't really see any back-lighting. Sorry. :(

Nice photo, I have wanted to be able to capture a waterfall scene this way. I don't see the contre-joure brighter then anything else light source.
