Cascade on Moccasin Creek

A few weeks ago we had a perfectly still / perfectly cloudy Saturday morning for photography, and with that I took full advantage. My favorite areas to explore are smaller cascades that are off the beaten path, and that are sometimes tricky to get into. This particular cascade on Moccasin Creek in North Georgia caught my eye during the creekwalk and had to be captured. I spent about 15 minutes cleaning the primary cascade that you see here from a number of downed limbs, logs, and downfall... it wasn't easy work, but someone had to do it, and I definitely think the result was worth it! With the cloudy morning I ended up photostacking all of my captures as with the polarizer things were definitely a touch dark at the narrower aperture, and I never like my exposure time to be much over a second. Photostacking kept things sharp across the entire frame even with the wider aperture - fun!

 

And here is a quick video for Part I of the adventure if you would like to check it out.
