Thank you for taking the time to visit my gallery. Faves and comments are always appreciated! Also, I invite you to download this image to use as desktop wallpaper. Please respect my work by not printing, selling, or reposting it.

Multnomah Falls (Columbia River Gorge, Oregon USA) -- no tourists in sight on this icy January day!

NOTE: When displayed at its default size, the photo may appear a bit "soft". FULL VIEW is highly recommended for better appreciation of detail.

(Nikon D70, Nikon 12-24 lens, circular polarizer, f/4, 1/3 second, Bogen/Manfrotto tripod)

Also see the vertical study which includes the entire waterfall:



More winter waterfalls for your chilly viewing pleasure...

I went up there last winter to take pictures of Multnomah Falls frozen over. Unfortunately, the freezing weather did not chase away the crowds. It might have even attracted them. It was just as bad as summertime. This is beautiful! It's impossible to take a bad picture of this waterfall.

Thanks for your kind words!

Sometimes the crowds find their way to Multnomah Falls even in the icy conditions (although it is considerably more dangerous). I used my Yaktrax so I had no problems, but I saw plenty of tourists slipping and falling on the icy pavement.

At least you're prepared. When I went, I couldn't operate my camera with my gloves, so idiot-me took them off the whole time and ended up with frostnip. My fingers were sensitive for weeks.

Sorry about that! I was wearing gloves that allowed finger flexibility.
