As Water and Time PassLost in Thought

The mystery of Papermill Falls is what got this photo started but will be a story for another day. Finding Papermill Falls will also have to wait. And I also have to find the name for the falls we did find. Anyway, as the waterfall (off to the left) was blasted with direct sunlight and difficult to photograph I was sitting nearby watching the creek flow over this rock. I liked its square look, its colors, and how it was both sticking out of the creek and submerged at the same time.

In the end, I liked this composition combined with a slow shutter speed. I think it was the simplicity of this look that won it for me.

Have fun finding your favorite scenes!
