It is from very close. The falls are in the side of a cliff and a viewing platform/bridge hangs about a 100 feet above them. I repelled down the front of the falls (yes the water was VERY cold ;)) and shot the photo from the inside of the bowl about 3 feet away from the water using an 18mm wide angle lens with a neutral density filter on the front. My tripod and I were standing in the pool of water which was about 2 feet deep.

If you are curious, I googled the falls and this is what they look like from the other side of the gorge: [link] The platform I came down from is just above where the photo cuts off at the top.

I love falls like this with relatively smaller amounts of water, it allows you to shoot them from so close without having to deal with all the mist fogging up your gear.

thanks for the compliment :)
