		| | All your photos are so well composed, with tremendous attention to detail. Nothing out of place. This is no exception; the rocks in the foreground and sharp trees behind; they create a subtle harmonious backgroung to the subject. Fantastic. |

		| | Gorgeous.  But doesn't say silence to me.  White noise is more like it...  Or the sound of a heavy rain, but not silence.  One of my favorite of the challenge but my score for it won't show it unfortunately... TC

		| | I've never known a waterfall to be quiet. Nice photo though. |

		| | Beautiful. Simply Beautiful. |

		| | This is a beautiful landscape shot but it really doesn't convey silence to me, probably because waterfalls normally aren't silent ; P |

		| | Very nice photo, fits challenge well, but really has been done a thousand times over.5. |

		| | Solid photograph, but waterfalls don't really say "silence"... |

		| | I LOVE this photo so much! But...  ... to me, it doesn't fit the challenge. I think "roar" not "silence" when I look at your photo. So, it gets lower score for the challenge, but darn it this is a good picture! |

		| | nice picture but not exactly silence.. | 
 |

		| | good picture, but does not give the feeling of silence |

		| | Moving water cannot be silent.  Try a higher iso and/or faster shutter speed if possible. | 
 |

		| | Beautiful picture. I like it in B & W. I don't get the feeling of silence here. It makes me imagine the sound of the rushing water. Its so nice though I can't resist giving it a good score even thought it doesn't necessarily satisfy the theme. Too bad you couldn't have entered this one in another contest it deserves a 9 or 10. |

		| | Nice use of foreground rocks to partially frame image. I like the luminescent quality of the white water. I do find the sky very bland and, although it would change the proportions of the image, I personally prefer less of that sky/ bare tree line included. 7 |

		| | Such a beautiful place. The B&W really makes this photo... 10 |

		| | black silence & white noise? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/06/2004 12:15:48 AM | 
		| | The waterfall on the lower left is a little washed out, but this is an excellent B&W |

		| | This is a very lovely photo, but I "hear" the water making quite a bit of noise - not silence. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/05/2004 06:12:27 PM | 
		| | Lovely photo, but waterfalls are not really all that "silent". | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/05/2004 05:30:31 PM | 
		| | I love these long-exposure waterfall shots.  The border was a good choice, as was black and white. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/04/2004 05:14:33 PM | 
		| | I don't get a sense of silence from the water falling.  This is a nice photo, but I don't see it meeting the challenge.  6 |

		| | I love the sound a waterfall makes.  The black & white works well in this picture.  I would like to see the color verson if there was one. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/04/2004 12:56:08 PM | 
		| | beautiful, but rushing water seems exciting and noisy | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/04/2004 11:57:42 AM | 
		| | Nice shot, but my experience with waterfalls is not necessarily one of silence | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 09:11:55 PM | 
		| | I like your use of a slow shutter to smooth the flow of water.  The soft light on the water also works well. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 03:25:33 PM | 
		| | Very good composition and a nice exposure. 
 Good choice to have it in b&w.
 | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 02:27:44 PM | 
		| | I love the picture, but waterfalls are generally noisy.  Still, it's beautiful. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 09:24:26 AM | 
		| | Wonderful contrasts and composition. Good luck. |

		| | Afraid this does not evoke silence to me for obvious reasons. A technically proficient shot though. | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 07:10:28 AM | 
		| | Wonderful picture, but is water silent? Or rather calm and serene? | 
 | 
		
			|  | 03/03/2004 03:35:18 AM | 
		| | Pretty shot, nice balance between hard and soft, but I hear water when I look at this. |
