Save your retinas: click here for a version on a black background, therefore preserving shadow detail.This is the type of landscape image that I most enjoy indulging myself in and capturing; pristine, untouched, and wild.
I made this image at the bottom portion of Maclean Falls, which were heavily flowing at the time. The presence of soil in the water (discolouring in the fall, and in the source fall towards the top right) indicates that it had been raining very heavily around the time of my trip to this location. I can attest to the insane amount of rain falling in the area.

The effect from the water is really smooth both top and below, my eyes was drawn to the water right away giving some thought to the effects is a blazing different capture from just plain white water effect. I know right away from the top flow this was real not some special effect that was created in photoshop, I like when a photo is 100% in the oddest places possible, this is exactly what the vision is.
The greens is very rich and deep on both ends and the shadows don't dominate at all. You have my same setup also on the wide side of things and i know this lens is the wides they come set aside the brighter 16-35 this is one of the best wide angle lens out.
Me personally i would of like to come closer just a bit to get the top and bottom with the running wanter some more that lens is wide enough to get all that. great work on this, thanks for sharing.
Ill be keeping my eyes open for something like this one im my shots.
