Cascade mountain creek, blessedly cool.

This photograph captures a serene water stream deep within the Sinharaja rainforest, near the edge of Deniyaya. The image highlights a small waterfall and the dense, surrounding forest. The water flows over mossy rocks, creating a gentle cascade that is a part of the larger, intricate ecosystem of the rainforest. The shot beautifully conveys a sense of untouched nature, where the water is a living thread weaving through a tapestry of lush greenery. It's a quiet and intimate portrait of a hidden corner of this ancient forest.

This was taken near St. John in eastern Washington.

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, school started and my new hobby (cycling) is taking up quite a lot of time. My family took a trip to the Trinity Alps and Mt. Shasta where I took what I consider to be my first acceptable landscape photos. There are many with similar compositions to this, I'll post more later.

Explore #245 on Sept. 1!!!!

I had been contemplating this shot for many years now. I had tried several times but luck was not in my favor.

My friend Dr Bishan got a dream shot a couple of months ago and it got me excited again.

Last weekend my friends had visited Coorg and we engaged in Macro photography for 3 days straight. Shoot-eat-sleep-repeat was our mantra.

While visiting a stream I got the opportunity again. Spent around 30 mins carefully following it from perch to perch until it allowed me to go close enough.

Once up close, it was a waiting game. Being ready to fire off a few quick shots whenever it opens its wings.

About a dozen unsatisfying tries later I finally got this shot.

Another image from Enån stream in Värmland county in Sweden, you can almost feel the trolls watching you.

Upper part of Šum waterfall ... Bistrica gorge, Slovenia.

I took a couple of photos at this spot along the West Highland Way in 2011, with a wider angle lens, and despite some technical shortcomings really liked them. But due to being convinced it was in a slightly different area about a mile further east, I could never relocate the exact spot.

Ten years later - almost to the day - I finally found it again, completely by chance. However, I think the wider angle did it more justice so I must give it another go next time I have the opportunity.

Those soft colours trail off in mind.

On our way over to Oxbow Bend (I wanted to check the area out as a potential sunrise spot) we crossed over this river ... it caught my eye, so we pulled over beyond the bridge so I could explore for a few minutes.

Made a couple LE captures at this location. This one was composed with the Tetons off there in the distance. Like the river and the rocks there along the bank.

3 Minutes at f/13

A re-purposed log turned into a bridge to cross a mountain stream on Vancouver Island.

Very cold & the first time I wave been to this location

Another from Acadia National Park on Easter Sunday...we stopped to explore a trail and I heard running water...found this stream, and fortunately there was a walkway over it that I was able to rest the camera on to take a longer exposure.
