Clearwater Falls - Umpqua National Forest
I made a trip over to the Umpqua NF for some waterfall photography and managed to get a couple nice images. The next day a lightning storm started over 40 fires and I was sent back over to help with fire dispatch - my other job!

Marcy,
What a beautiful waterfall. I like the strong diagonals in this picture and the color is very nice. On my screen it looks like there might be some loss of detail in the white water but otherwise - nice photo!

Thanks, Jody - this waterfall is one of my favorites to photograph - I love the way the water spills over the mossy rocks.

Cecil,

Photo was taken with a Nikon D200, 35-70mm f2.8 lens set at f4, and a shutter speed of 1/2 second.

Very nice! I like the diagonal flow and lush greens. The "little" waterfall in the background is a cool bonus.
