Beautiful images, Jake. I went to this rain forest many years ago, but did not have photography equipment. You did it well.

You pulled in the exposure just right in the deep canopy forest.

Absolutely beautiful. Sorry, no critiques from me.

Thanks Sandy! It was actually kind of sunny that day so I had to wait for the sun to go behind clouds for the water shots.

Thanks Jennifer!
All the places went went were vary, vary accessible. All the detail shots above were taken from a paved walkway.
All the water falls and creek photos above were taken a few feet from the road.

Shot #3 I had to climb over some rock and get my feet wet but that was about as hard as I worked for a shot.
I think there is a photo of me on FB getting that shot.

Really nice shots, I went this summer but I didn't have a tripod. I might upload some of Old San Juan one of these days.

Very, very nice. I like the perspective and the exposures seem perfect. I enjoyed looking at them very much.
