Hello everyone!
I hope your pandemic is as good as it can be. Our online family/peers here help to feel connected. Thanks.
Here's a photo for you. This is from Coal Pits Wash, Zion. I was here last month with spring run off and this small detail of a waterfall captured my interest. I had to use climbing ninja moves to get my camera into position right beside the shooting water but I succeeded and then was able to squeeze out with a dry camera! Whew. Hope the shot is worthwhile!

Here's a larger shot of where I went. The second vertical water drop is what is coming at the camera in the closeup. The stone was slippery and that pool below is about 8 feet deep right beside the rock, so I didn't want to slip into the watery depths. I basically slid down here and kept one extremity on opposing walls to prevent slipping into the pool while setting up and taking my shot. Crazy, I know, but you folks are also crazy. Hah.
