Eagle Falls

[BlackRockArt]

Last weekend, I had the chance to visit California's blue gem, Lake Tahoe.

Generous rainfall and snow this year have led to abundant snowpacks blanketing the Sierra Mountains.

With summer's arrival, waterfalls are popping up everywhere. I woke up at 5:00 am to make a trip to Eagle Falls.

The sight of the water rushing was simply breathtaking! The warm, golden morning glow highlighted the dancing water droplets, adding a magical touch to the moment.

The thunderous echo of the falls added to the spectacle, and standing on the rocky edges, the ponderosa and sugar pines completed the scene, making it seem as though it were straight out of a painting.

This is so awesome! Love that early morning light. And it sure does look like it was rushing full bore! Great job Oliver.

Thanks Jim.

Also, there is another composition: it's facing more towards the road; given the large area of wet rocks, I stayed away. One slip would result in being swept away down to the Emerald Lake.
