There's no modification of the water color in this shot. This is the way it looks! I've uploaded the original B&W version into the Pending gallery in case anybody want to check it out.

Very nice. Interesting color of water

Pops, that water color is unreal! That red Georgia earth must be pretty powerful stuff. Now I can't decide whether I like this version or the b & w better. They certainly convey very different moods.

Color? - On second thought, a flickr friend asked, "Willie Wonka" and I love the title with the color.

Thanks all.

Color - Mary Anne, you'd think differently if you saw it. We've had light rain and brief storms in the last few days and typical of all Georgia streams and creeks it's color is Georgia Clay red. It's not very attractive and screams to be B&W.

The Name - LOL - well I was tired and the brain wasn't firing on all cylinders. Perhaps it was because of the awful color of the water. I've changed it. (still laughing at myself)

Excellent water movement capture, Pops. The title is rather interesting... love to hear from you why you chose it? :-) Compliments and regards Nico

Interesting shot Pops. Is there a story behind the title? Regards Michael

Interesting shot, Pops. Are you trying to rebel in your title? *grin*
There's a bit of unusualness in the top of the water at the falls... It seems oddly flat when it should be almost white, I think. Still, the turbulence is almost rumbling my monitor. ~Lydia

Nice scene, Pops, but I think it's crying out to be in color. I like the way you captured the waterfall itself, making it look almost solid behind the trees.
