I Break for Waterfalls

I have several things I love to photograph but none that capture my heart and vision as do waterfalls. And yes, I have been known to slam on my breaks at the sight of a waterfall including these.

Beaver River Falls, Scenic Rt 61, Minnesota’s North Shore

Lewis Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming

Eagle River Falls, Keweenaw Peninsula, Michigan

Jacob’s Falls, Keweenaw Peninsula, Michigan

 

Travel theme: Up

This was one of my first view of Yellowstone. We we parked waiting to get through a construction zone. I got out and looked UP in wonder of all I was getting ready to see.

I hiked UP this peac at 4:00am to get some amazing photos of the sun rising over Crater Lake.

I had to use the most zoom I could get to capture this rock climber going UP the side of Devil’s Tower. This is an UP I will never do.

White Elegance

Among the many things I didn’t expect to find at Yellowstone National Park are white pelicans. These beautiful birds stand out against the glistening white rapids of Lehardy Rapids.
