Rainbow Falls, Hilo, The Big Island of Hawai'i

Just on the outskirts of Hilo is a small park with a waterfall along Wailuku River. The area is called Rainbow Falls but these two small falls are a subset of the main fall. I found this vantage point looking through the jungle vegetation to capture the small but delicate falls. When my wife and I were visiting this park it was just beginning to rain but within the hour the light drizzle had turned into a downpour. This is something one must expect in the tropics especially when you are on the windward side of the island. By the time the rain started in earnest my wife and I were firmly seated in a restaurant having lunch.

(As a note; the vertical object you see in the image just right of center is a jungle vine)

Beautiful picture with a very good natural framing. I like the POV and the strong colours. Well done.

хорошо сделано, мне понравилось !!! замечательное место !!!

Excellent composition with good choice of focal point. Those fg leaves look close enough to touch and the cliff with the falls make a perfect bg.

Hi John.

I really like this exposure from this distance .. just beautiful from the foreground plants to the distant falls ... a beautifully composed image with much to contemplate.

take care,

John

Hi John.
I had a look to your contributions about this splendid waterfal and this one is clearly among my favourite. I like the idea you had to give a lot of space to the vegetal background and foreground, even if in this case, the frame is almost more important than the cascade itself... The light appears really soft and natural.
Thanks for sharing.
