IRONY (2015) < Previous | Next >
One of the most visited and iconic waterfalls of North Carolina, the ironically named Dry Falls near the town of Highland in the Nantahala National Forest, captured here on a misty Fall Morning after heavy overnight rains. The waterfall is so named because it allows visitors to walk behind the falls while managing to stay relatively dry. That definitely wasn’t the case this day - the volume of water was kicking up quite a spray and the wind was drenching anyone who dared walk behind the waterfall. Still the spray provided for a wonderful atmosphere through which the sunlight streamed in and bathed the entire view with soft, dappled light. Fall is one of my favorite times to be out in nature and this was a very special fall day.
Technical Specs: Captured with a Nikon D750 16-35mm at 16mm at F/16/ISO 100/15 second exposure. Overlayed with a second, faster exposure to capture leaves with less motion blur.
