Description 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.

Though many people visit Marys Peak , the tallest mountain in Oregon's Coast Range, almost none of them visit Parker Creek which drains from near the summit. It's one of my favorite "secret spots" -- although it is possible to drive to within a few feet of this vantage point, very few people know about it.

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

If you enjoy this photo, please take a few moments to visit my Waterscapes gallery.

(Nikon D90, Nikon 11-16 lens, circular polarizer, f/22, 6 seconds, Bogen/Manfrotto tripod)

This is a gorgeous photo. The greens and yellows are bright, and beautifully saturated! I just wish that fern didn't have motion blur. That's unstoppable, though.

Great job!

greglief In reply to jordanwphotography [2012-01-23 22:45:41 +0000 UTC]

Agreed. I look at this and see that fern. But there was nothing to be done about it. It was not feasible for me to hold out out of the frame during the shot.

im putting my neck out here...but i have to say that is the most beautiful photo ive seen ever.
absolutely perfect..in everyway...love the composition...love the angle...the subject matter...the perspective...and love the lighting as well....the feeling of depth as you look into the centre...extremely interesting view where ever you look....love how there is only a little bit of sky coming through....i have a suspicion my bank manager is going to be mightly annoyed at me when i buy this print...blow it up onto canvas and then jump onto a flight over to your neck of the woods to find this spot and take in all the beauty....wow...
