p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Icy Wahclella Falls

Hello all,

I thought I'd continue on with my posts hoping the allows some of you the break from the bleak icy weather most of the country is having right now. No beach shots I'm afraid, but beautiful waterfall shots from Wahclella Falls in the Gorge.

I have not had a chance to shoot this climate before and it was like shooting the place anew even though I've been coming here for about 10 years. The main event is at the end of the trail and this time old man winter tried to tame the water.

#1 Wahclella Falls

The falls on my favorite boulder for viewing. The classic portrait view.

#2 Wahclella Falls Wide

Again, but a wider view. The best ice shot is below.

#2 Icy Wahclella Falls

Like an icy beard, the icicles hang tight for the few days it was cold enough to do so. It was also eerily quieter than usual for this waterfall.

Hope you like them. More from the historic highway soon.

Nice stuff Kevin. Hopefully there will be at least one more deep freeze before our winter ends.

Thanks, all!

Roman, I hope so, but I think the door closes after January if I remember correctly. The conditions and my work schedule finally coincided...

Nice set!

I like #1 the most. It's more simple and balanced to me.

#3 looks like it needs some CW rotation to me.

EDIT:
But maybe I'm crazy.. because #1 looks like it too. Optical illusion from the angle of the falls?
