High Water
The water's really high all over the place... a hiker died in Oeonota Gorge today... slipped on a tree trunk & drowned... lets all be careful OK?

This images was shot in OG recently during a workshop... Take it slow folks!

Nice image, Jack. I like this a lot. ...And I appreciate your warning about conditions.

I like the photo Jack. It looks like a nice painting, and the water flowing rapidly over the log is very appropriate to your message. The waters up here in the Seattle area are also very high and dangerous. Thanks for the warning!

Beautiful job Jack, as mentioned it looks like a painting to me also. Wonderful flow and colors!

Nice. The combo of the sharp log with the almost abstract water and color below works very well.

Sorry to hear about the hiker; I hadn't heard that. Your note of caution is appreciated. It's really easy to get so lost in the photography and forget about safety.
