A Stroke of Light - Butte Creek, OR A much less dangerous spot than my last picture. I decided to check out Upper Butte Creek falls this past fall since I had yet to visit this stunning location. Once I made my way down the short hike through the stunning moss-lined Vine Maple forest, I arrived at this gem. I didn't know how lucky I was until I came back a week later, to show my cousin Maz this spot, and the fall was completely transformed from the week's rain. The fall was much less defined and all of the rocks were underwater. On this day, I was drawn to the rock formations in the creek and attempted to use them to frame the beautiful waterfall. As I was setting up, the sun broke through the forest and created this light beam. It only lasted long enough for me to get exactly two frames. Luckily, this was one of them. The glow in the back of the scene really create a nice atmosphere for this picture and helped me create a memorable picture from a memorable day. Hope you enjoy! via 500px http://ift.tt/1CB1LWp
