Waterfall Wednesday 9/29/2021

Wednesday - time for another round of falling water

I was going to post this shot last week but I saved the file on a drive that I didn't take along with me on a trip to the coast soooo......

This is the West Fork of the Wallowa River in northeastern Oregon. Its a narrow chute with a fairly steep gradient that has the water flowing fast enough to almost sound like a train. I could hear it from the trail I was on when I was about 1/4 mile away but had to go overland to find a view of the water. Its roughly 30-40' to the bottom of the chute from the top of the embankments on the sides.

Pile on with your own depictions of falling water.

I am down to my last waterfall image and it isn't much of a waterfall. It has finally started raining here after months of little or no rain so the rivers should be filling up and I can get out and take some images. This is Glen Etive in Highland Scotland. Ken

These are known as "the potholes" on Presque Isle River. And , as a warning , don't take anything else on this post seriously

after the first shot I took a Jim Fox version. If you like his version, please don't say so . We don't want to give Jim attitude problems

then I shot one more , zoomed in and a middle shutter speed

What a strange year. Your neighborhood and the West Coast can't get enough rain. The Midwest has had so much more rain than normal it is hard to find a waterfall that isn't nearly at flood .

Definitely enough water flowing to be a visible waterfall no matter the height. Nice mood to this scene.

I really like how the first image in the set worked out. I usually don't go for quite as long a shutter open as you used for this but with this particular topography long exposure plays some really interesting tricks with the light and I like it. Fascinating place.

This is from this last summer at Nerstrand Big Woods State Park in Minnesota.

This scene has a really nice lush look to it. I like the highlighted moss on the sides of the falls and how you handled the light in processing this.

Are those shots from different people in the same gallery? Although both are superb shots, it sure leads to confusion as to who is who! I have several shots of waterfalls, can I post them in this gallery too? Maybe I should I guess!!!

Yes you can post them - Waterfall Wednesday is a community posting thread and everyone is encouraged to add their own waterfall images. We have been doing this for just over 4 years now so don't empty out your waterfall collection all at once

Very cool view looking over Tumalo Falls Dan - I have shot those falls from below but have never hiked up to the top. Nice shot of Bridalveil too.
