I switched to my Rokinon 12mm fisheye and it worked just fine and I got the above photo.  It was very dark in the valley.  There was not much of a moon and it set soon after we got there, so we had to light the falls with a flashlight.  I forgot about the wideness of my fisheye and my first attempt to light the falls included an unwanted guest at the edge of the photo.  And you can see the mist from the falls that was also a problem.
