WPC: Weight(less)

For this week’s Daily Post Challenge, I have another shot from my trip to Silver Falls State Park in Oregon.  I chose this shot for two reasons.  The water falls, obviously, due to gravity, but that slab of rock that the water flows across is cut very deeply underneath.  There is a tremendous amount of weight that is defying gravity by not collapsing here.

Mid-week Mixings: South Falls

South Falls-Silver Falls SP-Steve Bruno

Last year, around Thanksgiving, I was visiting family near Portland, Oregon.  I took a day to head out to Silver Falls State Park.  As the sun moved across the morning sky, its lower path didn’t clear the trees behind South Falls.  About the same time, the breeze kicked up a bit and lifted the mist created from the falls.  I had been to this spot before in summertime, but didn’t witness this incredible timing of light and elements on that visit.
