Waterfall Wednesday 6/14/2023

My falls for today are Mist Falls as seen in late May with a pretty low flow rate. I think these falls continue to flow through the summer but I have never seen them from this viewpoint during the dry months yet. Easy to see how they got their name since part of the drop are pretty much just mist already

This is a 3 vertical frame panorama with 5 stacked captures per frame median blended in Photoshop. 70mm lens on the drone.

Pile on and lets celebrate falling water.

The most slimey response I have ever given Alan

the sad part is the slime maybe the best attribute of the falls

I disagree - I like the light water flow and the cascades of these little falls. That is an amazing amount of algae in the path of the flow.

I'll start with the queen of falls in Yosemite & a video

Glad you included the video - the still shot shows a lot of water in these falls but the video puts exclamation marks around that. Jaw dropping.

This is one of the hot springs at Hot Creek Geological Site in Mono County, CA.

Alan, just as an experiment, I tried a b&w version

probably where I should have been from the start

I guess I can't say these are very cool falls I do like them.

This works quite well and places more emphasis on the falling water instead of the algae. Nice result!

Galena Creek falls in the mount Baker area from a couple of day back.

Nope. To be accurate, they're pretty stinky falls.

Nice - that creek looks like it will have a good flow for a while yet given the snow still on the ground. Neat falls.

Happily the malodorous quality is missing when we view the image on our screens.

I'm a sucker for B&W waterfall images! There's almost an abstract feel to this that I like

All the photos of the falls are beautiful.. it's just a shame I can't see the beautiful detail I love in the photo..

(The earth is heavily colored by the ferruginous water that flows from nearby healing springs.)

Enjoy the detail!

No shortage of details in the full sized version of these falls Peter. Fun little falls and easy to see how they swayed your processing to show them at their best. Nice.

Thank you Alan for your kind comment. I am gradually correcting my photos, because my new monitor (55"LG TV) and the new location of the workplace caused a lot of changes.
