Kaimai Falls

Kodak Professional 315gsm. Fine art giclee print. Size 50x40cm

One of my favourite shots.  The scene isn’t grand or spectacular and the falls hardly qualify as such and are so small that haven’t warranted a name.

It is quiet and intimate place off the beaten track.  The earlier rainfall causing the leaves to glisten. The soft top light shining through the foliage creating a natural vignette. The brown and orange of the volcanic rocks in the pool and the dead leaves providing the counterpoint to the foliage above.  The drawn out ribbons of moving water providing the eye of the picture. A simple but powerful composition.
