Hey, I've been there!! Sorry, but that's exciting because I live in Australia. I had a business trip to Bothell about 5 years ago, and the locals recommended these falls as a nice tourist place to visit on the weekend. I didn't have a camera with me on the trip, so thanks for proving an image to relive my memory. Great shot too.

Even looking closely I can't see the grain. Am I missing something?
Fantastic shot by the way.

Woodland park zoo is cool isn't it! Nice crisp shot, love the glove which could be in the texture challenge as well. Well done Chuck.
