Description

On Saturday Ann and I went out to Snoqualmie Falls and goofed around all afternoon, and then came back to town and had Greek food for dinner as an early birthday celebration. (I was going to take pictures of dinner ... but ... ummm ... we ate it.) :) Snoqualmie Falls was used in the TV series "Twin Peaks," so any David Lynch fans out there might recognize it. The flow here is about medium, I suppose. In late summer there's quite a bit less water going over the falls, and in the winter the water can run all the way across the top, obscuring even the rocks in the middle of the falls. You can check out a short video of the falls at flood stage here if you're interested.

Oooh, I have the theme to Twin Peaks throbbing away in my head now. I loved that series! As for this image, it's actually better than anything seen on screen, back in the day of Laura Palmer, Agent Cooper, and the One Armed Man... I love the details in this, and I've been attempting to accurately catch moving water. It's hard to do, but you've done it here...those cascades are fantastic, perfectly crisp, and well...the whole image is superb. It's definitely one of my favorites.

This is amazing! The color is perfect. It's almost tropical. Once you mentioned that it's the same waterfall that was used in Twin Peaks, a light went off and then I immediately recognized it. It looks so much different without Laura Palmer wrapped in plastic.
