Thanks Myksyk, shot is of Ballard Waterfall, which is on my backdoor but never knew it existed until recently, there's an interesting story related to the Waterfall as it is regarded to have been a hiding place for Irish highwayman William (Willie) Brennan and his loot. Maybe there's still some hidden there :eek:

The evening I visited was just after our coldest night of the year @ -7'C (hence the icicles in the wider shot). I took out my old 28mm Nikkor lens and tried a composition (with tripod), it gave me a more close in view. In post-processing I went for a B&W look and 'tried' to process the balance between light and dark areas.
/some great photos as usual, not just this week but every week and thanks to Myksyk for your continued dedicated work on this forum
