So there was a gap of 26 years between the two pix and a major technology change. But when I go back there again I bring the tripod. The success of my first shot was not film and Hasselblad. But tripod. As I was able to stop down to f 16 and get everything and use a full minute time exposure making the water turn into something seemingly metaphysically different. Yes there is a series of falls in the gorge 5 minutes apart. Bridal Veil being one of them. http://www.waterfallswest.com/waterfall.php?id=124 But bridal Veils have been a theme of mine in my road trips. I've got hundreds of them from small towns of America. http://rabinergroup.com/EastWest/images/EW060617_182146.jpg [Rabs] Mark William Rabiner
