hidden deep in the gulley away from the blue sky, a trickle quietly creeps over the rocks
Its pretty cool when you can get to 30 second shutter speeds without filters and its 10am in the morning. Mount Wilson is well known for a few serious canyoning routes, this is not one of them 😉 however you can certainly see how the area is well suited to it. The walk down is pretty mild and access to the various little falls is easy and there is plenty to see and photograph, but what I did like was the sweet greenness of the rocks contrasting with the deep black of the rocks – fav combo right there so i forgive the falls for being only a trickle.
single frame, no gimmicks 😉 just alot of green rough balls..

+Gerard Blacklock I like this one a lot, I like that there isn't much water, so it's not a normal long exposure waterfall, and I like the big green balls 🙂 This is one of my favourites of your shots Gerard!
+Gerard Blacklock​ I think this shot is awesome too 😀
Thanks +Chris Sutton Thats great, and this is what I love about photography, what is one persons awesome image not necessarily another persons. I do actually like this one too, even tho there is not much water – i think it gives the other elements a bit more airplay rather being second fiddle to the water.

haha cheers mate, i reckon your shots and the locations you guys get to are awesome 🙂
+Gerard Blacklock Exactly, and it's great fun to mix things up, I always enjoy seeing a different perspective on a classic subject. Great work mate.

Thanks for sharing my friend
+Gerard Blacklock these waterfalls may be small but the scenery and moss covered rocks are stunning!
superb bro
Gorgeous scene +Gerard Blacklock!! Lovely capture with pretty cool fuzzy wuzzy green balls! 😉
Bellissima Tecnica!!
Yep – I like this one better than all the crappy compos I came up with down here mate. I had the same problem with that stupid reflection at the bottom too – just couldn't get a polarisation setting to dampen it the right amount.

Thanks +Tom Testone , i like even after a few days ( i tend to dislike alot of images after a few days 😉 ) and i think because it does not have the typical cliche waterflow and the other elements like the rocks shine 🙂
+John Lucky

yeah that was a pita, i just locally brought down the brightness there such that it did not draw the eye too much.
you'll have to post your one when shooting down the creek, I am sure that would be a nice view..
