My own private waterfall

This is a little waterfall in the Barton Creek Greenbelt here in Austin. I love this area. I have spent many hours hiking and mountain biking the trails throughout the greenbelt, which runs about 7 miles in length. It is just a few minutes from downtown, but is so secluded it feels like you are in the middle of nowhere. It’s awesome and ranks as one of my favorite places in Austin. I took this shot while on a hike back in July. Usually this place is bone dry in the summer, but we had a fairly wet June and July, resulting in these wonderful falls. By August it was dry again. Ah, summer in Texas.

 

This is a single exposure which I processed with HDR Efex Pro. I am really digging this new product from Nik Software. It is top notch. The only problem is that now I want to go back and re-process everything!
