Explored
This shot of Proxy Falls in the Sisters Wilderness of Oregon has been sitting in my ready file for awhile now. When first looking through the many shots that I took in this area, I was not excited about the waterfall shots, which was disappointing because it took a lot of work to get down to the base and more particularly to get back up. When I looked at them again, months later, they didn't seem so bad. This one wasn't my favorite but I decided to try a crop and edit to see how it turned out. Waterfall shooting is something that I have not done much of so any input would be appreciated. This is of the lower portion of the falls - the sporadic sunlight made them even more difficult to capture and expose correctly.
View large if you have a chance.
This wilderness is in part a geological marvel of volcanic destruction and another part beautiful, lush green wilderness. I can't wait to go back but will probably do so when mosquitos are absent..
Thanks for taking the time to look and happy Monday to everyone. I'm off for a full day of school.

I love the light and way he water is illuminated (it appears blue on my screen) and transparent. The word crystalline comes to mind. It's a beautiful shot. I saw this in Crosscut.
