Exclamation Waterfall photos PLEASE

Please submit photos of just the waterfall portion of your pond, so we can all share ideas and help others who aren't sure how they want their waterfalls to look, yet (like me ).

Can't wait to see everyone's falls!

This simple little falls rolls off clean since it has a rubber liner over hanging the front lip. It only takes 1/2" or more of rubber, and the water glides off crystal clear and smooth... I can run as little a 1000 gph or as much as 5000 gph...
And, when entering the water, it slices the surface, leaving almost no ripples, yet air bubbles seem to rise to the surface from the deep like a curtain...

In this picture, you can see the above waterfall placed towards the right...
Notice - NO RIPPLES... Able to view the fish much easier this way... 5200 gallons of crystal viewing...

THANKS!
