Multnomah Falls
 |
|
| [Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note |
Multnomah Falls Is evidence of constant geologic change. Millions of years ago,grinding glaciers, Powerful floods, and the uplifting Cascade Mountains formed the Columbia Gorge. In addition to continuous erosion from the Columbia River,Landslides, mud slides and rock falls, Multnomah Falls carves its own unique
"footprints" through layers of rock. Multnomah Falls was created when massive floods scoured out the Columbia River Gorge, Leaving the falls to "hang."
Multnomah Falls erodes softer layers of rock below and behind the falls, creating a plunge pool and cave. The upper fall recedes faster then the lower falls due
to the type of rock. This constant geologic process will continue to contribute to a dramatic change. |

Incredible Shot! I love how you have the waterfall framed perfectly by the bridge and the bridge by the greenery. I also love how you used the open shutter shot to get that great effect of the moving water. Great job!

Hello Tom,
I have to give my compliment on this excellent waterfall captured!
It's a awesome fall alright! compare to the size of the bridge across it that we know the size of the fall itself!
good pov with exposure and focus in F/22 and 1/2sec
clarity is excellent too
Thanks for sharing
