Amazing shot! If I have a nit to pick, it's that the rock face is a bit too bright.

Wow, that's super cool. Shutter speed is just right. I'm not sure if the rocks look to bright or not but I imagine if they were darker the door might pop a little more. Either way it's a really cool shot!

Really amazing.

Made a Google search for photos at that location, and found nothing that comes close!

Thanks everyone, that's greatly appreciated!

About the rock, yes, I find it a little too bright too, in fact I reduced the brightness to focus more on the splash. When I printed it and looked at it from a distance, though, the splash is very prominent, so I'm reluctant to darken it more.

Excellent shot.
