Great work, Majeed! How do you deal with the lens or filter getting wet in such conditions? It must already be hard standing there let alone wiping/cleaning your equipment.

I typically turn the camera away from the source of mist. Then I dry the front with a large microfiber cloth. I turn the camera, compose quickly, and then repeat.

Basically every shot this was necessary.

Thanks!

That's an incredible photo. I miss the NW so much. When I get out of the Navy I will be heading back that way for sure. We used to hike the Gorge every week and fish the Sandy every weekend. That's God's country.

Beautiful area. Most just see the tip of the iceberg, Multnomah falls. But there's so much more.

Very pretty scene, what i like is how you've framed the greenery with golden background. Too often green is just overwhelming, here it is given a nice treatment.

Thanks

Right up there with some of your Best of The Best. :thumbup:
Everytime I think I can't look at another long exposure waterfall, out comes a shot like this and I change my mind. Nice job!

It's hard to make them not all look the same.

The only thing more amazing than what you go through to get your photos is the photos themselves. Inspiring!

Thanks baturn!

I like the balance of the warmth of the trees and the coolness of the water. Beautiful.
