Thunder Creek Falls

The picture does not tell everything.  This set of falls is 28 meters high and does it thunder!

I love the lush green of the vegetation, the brilliant white of the falls and the darkness of the wet rock.  On top of that, I am amazed by the bright turquoise blue of the pool of glacial water.  It seems to tropical of a color to be there, yet there it is.  I like the texture of the trees and shrubs and the number of smoothed rocks at the bottom of the falls.image

Nice picture!!

I'd be tempted to pump up the saturation a bit to get the turquoise to pop out more....even if that's not really how it looked in nature.

But I guess that's because I'm enthralled by the incredible first greens of spring right now!

I want to visit Thunder Falls!
