Gorgeous Gorge

Spring in the Columbia Gorge has to be one of the most beautiful places on earth.  Everything is lush and green and the streams, rivers and waterfalls are at capacity from all the winter rains.  If you ever get a chance to visit the area in spring don't pass up the opportunity.

This image is from very early this spring.  There's still some greening up that's going on so I focused in on one of the small streams that runs into Eagle Creek.  The moss on the rocks seemed to be glowing from the diffused forest light so I made them the focal point for the shot.   This is one of those locations I could have spent the entire day at.  The sound of the water, the lush green moss, the mist in the error...  a place that just draws you in.  I'll definitely be going back to visit here again and again.

Be sure to take some time and find your "favorite place."  Taking a few minutes to just enjoy the surroundings will do wonders to refresh your spirit and help put this crazy busy world into perspective.

Until next time,
