Proxy Falls

This is Proxy Falls located in the Three Sisters Wilderness area of the Willamette National Forest.  If Multnomah is the tallest waterfall in Oregon then Proxy has to be the most photographed and for good reason.  A constant drizzle made this shot especially difficult.  I can assure you that manipulating a tripod, camera in full manual mode, and an umbrella is no easy task. 

Multnomah Falls

This is Multnomah Falls in the Columbia River Gorge.  At 620 feet, it's the second tallest waterfall in the United States and a nightmare to photograph with a single shot.  That's why it took three stitched images to create and perhaps even more stitches to visit.  In 1995, a 400 ton boulder fell from the face and made a 70 foot splash that caused minor injuries to a wedding party that was being photographed on the bridge.
