Moss Garden

I took this image while leading a tour in Olympic National Park. As we explored the creeks of the Sol Duc Valley, I was captivated by this group of rocks, lush in moss from year round water.

Canon 7D, Canon 10-22mm, f/14, 13 sec.

Thanks for the C & C's!

Great colors and textures! This shows a side of Olympic that I've never
seen. I like this very much, and thanks for sharing, Justin.

These scenes are often difficult to find and expose. Wonderful job here, Justin.

Justin,

I like this very much. The color is rich as is the detail in the moss. I like how certain areas are spot lit. I do wish the fine little cascade was in more to the right, but its minor overall.

Love the super-saturated colors and textures here, Justin. Just a great intimate scene.

Very original image - I'm on the fence about the composition but the color and glow are amazing.

Love the feel of the textures, kinda furry looking. Greens are nice also. Nice work.

I really like the colors and the glow of this. Both streams of water create good counterpoints for the eye as well. Subtle, yet beautiful.
