The Atomizer
Thanks to the power of tonemapping I was finally able to salvage this capture of Spray Falls, which is one of the coolest waterfalls I have visited in Mount Rainier National Park. It is located in the Mowich Lake area which is in the long forgotten Northwest corner of the park, where fewer tourists visit. Unfortunately, I have not made it back up here since this one and only visit. It truly requires a truck or SUV vehicle with its bumpy terrain, narrow roads and elevation gain. It was an interesting drive up there cruising in my Honda Accord. Being one of my earlier waterfall captures I can proudly say this was one of my last waterfall images captured before purchasing my tripod. Not too bad for handheld, though I don't recommend it at all.
I am pleased to have finally achieved this image, I had worked on it off and on never being pleased with the results. If you are visiting Mount Rainier National Park I would definitely recommend visiting this 280 foot beast. Keep in mind though, it is not a convenient waterfall at all and you cannot access it from the two popular destinations Paradise & Sunrise. Thanks for checking this out. Enjoy!
