Unfortunately, I arrived late enough in the morning that the sun was shining directly into the camera - I had to hide in the shade of a tree and take some "peek-a-boo" shots of just part of the falls...
I took a day trip to the Willamette National Forest East of Eugene Oregon on the Old Mckenzie Highway. I drove 1/2 hour into the park and passed no one. This fall is about a 1/2 mile easy hike from the road that will take you over an interesting lava flow. It was pouring rain and I needed to plant my tripod in the middle of the river to get this shot. Then I realized if I slipped it was going to be a VERY long wait for help.
On the western side of McKenzie pass over the Oregon Cascade Range. You have to walk half a mile from the parking, then descend to canyon, ford the creek filled with logs and then scramble up to the falls. And you really need overcast day.
Or, like 99.9% visitors, you could take a snapshot from the viewpoit across the canyon.
I took a longer exposure on this shot than others in my Proxy Falls series to emphasize a mist effect.

I seem to be getting less and less creative with my titles.
This is another aspect of Proxy Falls, one of the most magical waterfalls I've been to. This is from last Spring, when we hiked through 2.5 miles of snow on the road to even reach the trailhead, and then hiked another mile to the falls itself. I recently revisited Proxy (I won't have those images for another week or more, though, as they are slides and I'm not about to fire off my last few shots of Velvia without careful consideration) and guess what I found?
Snow. Sigh. Luckily, though, the road was passable this time, and the snow at Proxy was only a light layer. I actually journeyed up to the Dee Wright Observatory and when I came back down and hit the Proxy Trail, I was completely alone in the parking lot... just the way I like it. It was a damp but lovely hike and the waterfall itself didn't disappoint this time, either.
Taken with my Nikon FM, and likely Kodak 160VC film.
Provia 400x, 1/4 sec. Singh ray warming polarizer. It was great using faster film this time to battle the spray. I bracketed 4 shots, 1 stop apart (1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1 sec) on this roll with a polarizer and center filter at f/22 and didn't even use the bulb setting. That means not having a lens dripping with water after a 20 second shot.

I haven't been here since last year but I thought I'd post an old one anyways. I was working in Corvallis all last week and was tempted to drive a little further south to revisit this one. Last time I was here I took a vertical shot right next to the falls that I really loved but overexposed it slightly. Since then I've been wanting to get back here and redo that one shot. This place is always amazing to visit too, and like a lot of the waterfalls here in Oregon you'll probably have it all to yourself.
