If a Tree Falls in the Gorge...
does a photographer use it for a leading line? Yes, of course he does! This is the peerless Oneonta Gorge in Oregon, not far from Portland. Taken back in May on a road trip with Kevin Benedict.
I already posted a photo of the Gorge a few months ago, but I liked this tangle of fallen trees. They helped to hide the mobs of people that hiked out to cool off in the water on this 100 degree day. One of the most challenging aspects of shooting the Gorge is the huge dynamic range from deep shadows to bright direct sunlight. With the deep greens of the mossy walls, it is a perfect place for a polarizer filter (I used the B+W circular polarizer here, which I've had some good results from in the past).
Very keen to get back to Oregon and re-shoot the Gorge, among other locales, in the not-too-distant future. A very special place.
