Mist Falls from a visit to the cliffs just west of Wahkeena Falls last winter. The Gorge can get some downright nasty winter storms but since the river bottom areas are near sea level it usually melts quickly. This is a blended image from a 7 shot burst shot at 70mm.

terrific shot. It has been on my bucket list for a few years. when is the best time to shoot the falls? Season & time of day?
I have done this a couple of times - once in summer and once in fall. I would get there around sunrise or on a cloudy day. On a sunny day once the sun comes overhead, its a very challenging act.

Proxy falls begs for a wide view and a vertical panorama to really capture the whole face of that cliff. Its like endless cascades. Beautiful shot to show off all of the moss.
I have some shots with the entire falls taken at around 16mm but not a stitched pano. I think launching a drone there to do the vertical pano might be an interesting exercise.
