Made a quick stop to Snoqualmie Falls while I was out and about yesterday.

I've taken enough shots of the falls, and since it wasn't frozen, I wasn't motivated to take any more.

I looked across the gorge and saw this scene on the hillside there. The layers, tones, soft light, and muted colors made for a much more interesting image I thought.

I'm in a sunny room on a laptop, but it looks like it could use a bit more contrast. Of course, I have your snoqualmie with snow shot framed across the room from me, and that's hard to beat.

Yeah, I didn't crank up the contrast too much because the scene as presented was closer to what I saw. But here's a more contrasty version for comparison.

And thanks for the compliment Marylynne, I'm flattered!

Good concept Joe. I like it!

Great catch Joe. This is subtle, and really enchanting if you take a few moments to get lost in it.
