Proxy Falls, Oregon
This area was just fascinating! The volcanic stepping stones from ancient times are now a beautifully terraced, moss–covered waterfall in Mother Nature’s garden. This shoot coincided with the first major winter storm of the season, so melting snow from the previous day increased the water flow and allowed me to capture the gentle blue light from the sky above, contrasting with the rich greens of the moss. The length of the exposure helped soften the flowing water, but made the greens appear almost fluorescent.

Daniel ★★★★★

The moss really steals the show here—it’s draped so thick over the terraces that the water seems to glow green as it drops. I’ve stared at this print for ten minutes and keep finding new details in the rock layers. Exactly the kind of scene that makes you want to plan a trip out there.

Hazel Z. ★★★★★

The volcanic stepping stones layered into those terraces give it a texture you can almost feel through the screen. I've stared at the mossy green against the water for way too long, and it’s somehow calming every time.

Kevin ★★★★★

The moss-covered terraces look almost surreal in person, like a tiny Jurassic world frozen mid-flow. Printed on this water’s surface, every volcanic step catches the light differently depending on the angle.
