Thanks Maureen. This was about a mile up the trail, but the trail head is only 5 miles from home.

That is stunning. I find it very hard to photograph moving water. Both the moss and the little water fall are beautiful!

Thanks kateri. Moving water is a challenge that I enjoy. It’s a little easier to do here because there are some deep canyons that have low light conditions which make it easier to use slow shutter speeds without special filters. This was shot at 1 second @ f32, ISO 800 with -2/3EV. The day was all overcast with just a trace of light snow in the air.

I love moss! Especially that shade of green moss! So pretty…and the softness of the water is so soothing…

I love the moss too. In summer, this is a cool place to visit on a hot afternoon: this time of year, down right cold, but always pretty. The canyon is wild enough that it’s very quiet there.

Beautiful! I really like the blue and green hues in this capture and the waterfall is gorgeous! Don’t you love the smell and ‘sting’ of a trace of light snow in the air? I do! 🙂

Yes, I do love being outdoors when it’s snowing. We haven’t had much in the valleys so far this year and I’m rather looking forward to it even though it is a mixed blessing for me. It’s beautiful and necessary, but it keeps me from getting to many of my favorite trail heads.

I took a class in bryophytes. Very interesting and essential living things. In the early spring and winter is when we notice them the most though they are they all the time.
They do give color during times when most of the color is gone.

Gotta love the green on the icy light blue. I recently have been playing around with some of the settings on my camera. Not nearly as nice as your photos, but I was pleased.

Very nice. The bright green moss add a wonderful touch. Just wish that branch wasn’t in the frame but that’s nature as we find it!

The branches bothered me too, and sometimes I am able to move a few, but most of the time not. Most of our canyons have a lot of branches, tree duff and fallen logs in them, but I think that’s ultimately what makes them work. I do envy many of the beautiful scenes I see from the east where the forest looks as though it was recently groomed. That seldom is the case here.

I’d prefer my forests un-groomed. I don;t mind that nature looks natural and not as if it’s ready for a glamor magazine shot.

Our forests after all, are what they are. The elements vary so much from area to area. I’ve seen closely tended areas that look and indeed are, completely sterile, and also other areas that are so thick that they are impenetrable: neither extreme is completely comfortable.

What glorious colors and the water looks amazing. I guess the few times I’ve shot running water, I’ve used too fast a shutter. Sometimes I like the stop action look but this is really better since it’s more “true.”

This was shot at 1 second at f32. I think I could have used a little faster shutter speed.
