Haven't been able to get out and do any shooting as of late, Or this year even...But hoping to change that soon... But it has prompted me to dig back through the photos I took in 2011, and find this shot to process of Proxy Falls, Oregon...

Oregon's Proxy Falls in the spring. You can't tell from this image, but the waterflow was so intense that this was a close as I could get and still be able to fire off some shots without my lens getting totally soaked within seconds. As it was, I had to furiously wipe the front element of my lens between each shot. One sure fire way of distinguishing whether a landscape photographer is from the Pacific Northwest is to watch their technique when it comes to wiping water off their lens. The ones trying to do it with just one towel aren't the natives!
Another snippet of Proxy. I really wanted to concentrate on the moss in this shot, as the bowl beneath Proxy is so lush and green and packed with moss over everything. The water from the falls of course plays an integral part in that, so I chose to include a bit of the falls, but really this shot is about the moss.
And yes, before you ask Aaron, this shot was taken within 15 feet of you. :-p
I have created a lot of photographs over the last few years...but...I think that I have a new favorite.
A lot of effort went into this one and I think it worked out splendidly. Also, it's photos like these that make sleeping in a rental car on the side of the road worth the trouble.
Detail shot:
I wanted to visit this place for quite a long time and finally made it here a couple of weeks back. The falls absolutely blows you the very 1st time you see it. The sheer size and intricate twists and turns in the flow of water is indeed awe-inspiring!
This beautiful 225 ft. waterfall in the Oregon Cascade Mountains has long been on my bucket list. Gotta say I was real disappointed when I finally made it there less than a couple of weeks ago and the creek level was so low that only half the falls was flowing. Oh well, I concentrated on more intimate shots of the falling water this time around.
With so many of my friends in the northwest posting waterfall photos, I felt compelled to re-visit one of my only waterfall shots that I took a couple years ago, the first time I visited Oregon.
Proxy Falls is hidden away in the mountains a little east of Bend, Oregon and it is absolutely incredible.
What I wouldn't give to be in Oregon right now to get some winter shots here!
Another shot from this magnificent show of nature...Even though it was a task finding this place, I'm glad I did it! I would never forget the impression this waterfall left on me.
Actually, it was delight in person when I finally got to see Proxy Falls today! Andy and I left our house at 2 am and drove 400 miles round trip to get to this monstrous beauty and she did not disappoint. This is a magnificent waterfall and one I highly recommend all persons visit at least once in their lifetime!
