More Oldies

Sol Duc Falls in Olympic National Park, Washington is one of my all-time favorite places in the world. It is a ¾ mile hike through a magnificent old forest to get to the falls and there are photographs everywhere. Go there on a quiet, misty day or even a lightly raining day- the light will be magnificent and the forest will magically glow. Please don’t go there to photograph on a sunny day- you will greatly suffer and your images will not be kind to you.

The exact spot where I took this shot in 1990 is no longer there- it slid into the gorge! Everything else remains as seen- a thousand year old forest of timeless beauty.
