I Saw Water Fall from the Sky as Rain One Day in Ohio (Cuyahoga Valley National Park)

I Saw Water Fall from the Sky as Rain One Day in Ohio

A few drops fell upon my face and dampened my clothes

Other drops fell on the grass to add water for nourishment

It was only later when I walked to Blue Hen Falls

That I met the other drops as they fell over the edge in a waterfall

And crashed on the rocks below in Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

 

Another work of short poetry or prose to complement the image captured one mooning in Cuyahoga Valley National Park at Blue Hen Falls. With the rains that I'd seen on my drive from Kentucky and Mammoth Cave National Park, I'd wondered if I'd have good weather to enjoy for hiking. Little did I appreciate that this rain would bring waters that would allow me to capture a long exposure image of this famous waterfall.

 

For the image captured, I was then able to work with control points and color control points in Capture NX2 to bring out the contrast, saturation and brightness I wanted. I finished up post-processing work in Capture NX2 by adding a few CEP filters (Low Key and Darken/Lighten Center) for the final image.
