Last nights storm seems to have dealt the death blow to a glorious stretch of fall color.  It’s amazing how fast the leaves drop once they reach “the” point.  This is Wheeler Creek a few days past it’s prime, shot with a Singh Ray Vari ND filter to slow everything down and get that smooth [...]

Was out for a quick hike yesterday afternoon in between football games as Tonka and I try to suck the last drops of marrow from this wonderful fall weather.  Came across this amazing waterfall that I’d only seen early in the spring when it’s a raging torrent.  Wish I would have had a vari ND [...]
