McCloud Fall

[BlackRockArt]

Hi y'all

I made a quick visit to the Shasta region last weekend to see some water falls. Given the twice more than average precipitaion in the winter, I was expecting good flow. It turned out the water falls are spectacular.

Enjoy.

Nicely captured Oliver. I find higher flows more fun to see, but, at the same time harder to photograph. You rose to the challenge well.

That's an awful lot of water rushing through this scene. Nice to have someone in the scene for a sense of scale for this set of falls. I like the hue of the water.

Great job, Oliver.

I like the shutter speed here. Nice detail in the flow. I love the McCloud area.

 

[Jameel Hyder]

I like the color of the water. Good choice of shutter for this flow.

Very cool Oliver. I am not sure I have heard of this one.

I like your capture of this, but I would get rid of that person in it. He is really distracting, and he isn't photogenic.

So it looks like there is several falls there. I looked it up to see how far away it is.

Thanks Tim.

Us in California should have a decent summer without drought worry, definitely check out all the water falls.

On this water fall, I went there near dusk to avoid harsh sun light, it's also a popular toursit stop.

Thank Alan, this is a popular spot for the local kids to jump & dive.

That spot looks a bit on the dangerous side to jump into with this level of flow.

Beautiful image and yes, the person adds great perspective to the scene.

Yes, it's a nice region for water falls.

I like the color of the water. Good choice of shutter for this flow.

Thanks Jameel, yes. normally I use 6 stop ND filters, this time only 3 stop is good enough.

Thanks Jim.

I also have another shot without that person, for scale, I left him there.

Those were two local kids, we struck a short conversation on where to take pictures etc, I enjoyed their company.

There are 3 water falls on the string: Lower, middle & upper falls, each is very different.
