Im malerischen Ilsetal südwestlich von Ilsenburg im Harz überwindet die Ilse auf einem Streckenabschnitt von etwas mehr als einem Kilometer einen Höhenunterschied von etwa 120 Metern. Dabei stürzt das Wasser des wilden Harzflusses lautstark rauschend über eine Vielzahl kleiner und größerer kaskadenartig angeordneter natürlicher Wasserfälle talwärts. Die Natur hat hier im Laufe der Jahrtausende eine wahrhaft eindrucksvolle zusammenhängende Attraktion aus Fels und Wasser geschaffen.
In the picturesque Ilse valley southwest of Ilsenburg in the Harz mountains, the Ilse overcomes a difference in altitude of around 120 meters over a section of just over one kilometer. The water of the wild Harz River rushes down the valley with a loud rush over a large number of small and large natural waterfalls arranged in a cascade. Here, over the millennia, nature has created a truly impressive coherent attraction of rock and water.
rural idyll in Southwest Iceland (Valshamar) on a lovely sunny evening (mind you it's midnight sun up there).
I really envied the horses for this spot, but then of course, they deserve it after all they are through in winter!
Decided to head up Little Cottonwood Canyon again before hitting the road Wednesday. This time I went later, so no filters needed. Climbed down amongst the bolders, found my perch, and began taking pictures, feeling renewed and excited, like the energy from the stream was rushing into my body, left exhilarated and relaxed. I love this place.

a little mountain stream coming from an geothermal volcanic spot in Iceland's Myvatn area. About hundred metres further upstream it was still steaming, here it already looked cooled down but still capable of melting snow and ice :)
the hour of golden, long light reflecting in incredible ways on those snow-covered Icelandic mountains all the while the sky is of a cold, beautiful turquoise reflected in the many water courses.
We used the opportunity of passing by Luineag, a very beautiful mountain stream near Loch Morlich to get some LE shots of its lovely passage.

From Blakiston Falls in Waterton Lakes NP we continued to walk along Blakiston Creek for an hour. The red rock river bed is fascinating and nature is impressive. [Explored on 23/04/2021, #185]
The Rein da Medel or the Medelser Rhein is the longest tributary stream flowing towards the Rhine near to its source. I took this photo at Fuorns in the Val Medel. The view is downstream, towards Disentis.
We had just had our packed lunch, sitting on the boulders in the Rein da Medel. I enjoyed myself thoroughly! [Explored on 07/04/2021, #156]
the vast plains of South Iceland see some strong weather changes, especially in Spring. While we were standing in beautiful sunshine, a bit further to the coast it was raining cats and dogs, which is a beautiful sight when you are overlooking such an immense plain.
It looks like those two trees can fall into Vermilion River any minute now!
We are on a trail along the river that will lead us to the Paint Pots in Kootenay NP, Canada. The Paint Pots can be seen on the cover of my album. It's a very beautiful hike through some wild and lonely country. [Explored on 26/06/2021, #107]
... We will come and go, in the forest
In the summer rain, we will meet again
We will learn the code of the ancient ones
In the forest ...

another waterfall ending up in a lovely little mountain stream in the Westfjords area of Northwest Iceland. Unfortunately it turned out that the waterfall was inaccessible (fenced in) but I liked the look of this spot a lot anyway.
From the Oberer Höhenweg - the Panorama Trail - you can view into the Wildental. Later in our holiday, we would descend into that valley from over one of the mountains in the background. [Explored on 18/10/2021, #157]
Took this shot today just a few miles south of Canyonville Oregon. Used my Lee filters .6ND and a .3ND soft gradient. It was too dark to hand hold and too bright for a long shutter. I've been playing around with these filters for awhile, but this is the first time I've posted a picture using them.

This is a stitched panorama of several shots of mine from a gorgeous spot in the Icelandic Highlands, here near Fjallbakki. In the foreground are the strange structures and rough textures of an old lava field (volcano HEKLA is nearby) while the background shows gorgeous mountain streams with their glens and snow-covered higher peaks. This excursion was absolutely WONDERFUL
Gluggafoss, according to Google also called Merkjárfoss, birthing the river Merkjár that takes its meandering course towards the opposite Eyjafjallajokull mountain massif in South Iceland.
"The Merkjá River has several beautiful waterfalls, but the most outstanding is Gluggafoss or Window Falls. (also known as Merkjárfoss) The upper half of the cliff is palagonite or tuff rock and the lower ledge is basalt. The river has formed tunnels and grooves through the soft rock and a series of 'windows' in the tunnels, thereby earning the name 'Gluggafoss'. At the very top of the falls, the river passes under a stone arch. As the rock is rather soft, the waterfall has changed over time. Around 1947 the upper half of the waterfall could hardly be seen, as the water flowed into a vertical tunnel behind the cliff. It was only visible through three different openings or 'windows' one above the other. The water came out through the bottom 'window', forming a beautiful arch, except when the water rose in the river, forcing it through all three windows. Further changes occurred when Hekla erupted in 1947, causing a 20 cm thick layer of volcanic ash to be carried downstream by the river. The vertical tunnel formation nearly disappeared as it filled with ash. It has taken nearly 50 years for the falls to return to its former glory."

Fortunately, I didn't have to cross the log to get to the other side. The water was shallow enough that I found several spots with rocks close enough to easily cross. This is another picture from this past weekend while home for a couple of days. Little Cottonwood Canyon,Utah.
These are the fourth major falls we came across on our hike along the Schwarzwasserbach (Kleinwalsertal). This is the full width view - I've already posted a close-up of these falls, which are situated near Hirschegg.

This is from my last home time. I took my mom with me up Little Cottonwood Canyon (Salt Lake County, Utah) and took a variety of rushing stream shots as darkness fell.
The mountain stream gently makes its way down the mountain from the spring where it rises near the ridge further up the incline.
Ive watched the Dipper fishing off these rocks here and a Grey Wagtail family chasing the Midges that gather round these places, on long summery days.
A lovely spot to sit, watch and listen and discover who you really are.

This little stream is the source of the Liffey River on which Dublin is built. The deep blue of the water is caused by the skys reflection, as the water at this level, is a brown colour caused by the peat bog that it flows through. I havent enhanced it in any way.
Thank you my friends.
