Burney Falls Finale

McArthur-Burney Falls taken from the observation deck at the top.

This is the view you get when you don’t take the hike down to the base of the falls. In some ways, I think this view is more impressive. You get to see the falls in their entirety. That said, I also highly recommend taking the hike, so you can see it from many different perspectives. This is especially important if you are a photographer. [click to continue…]

McArthur-Burney Falls Close-Up

Close up view of McArthur-Burney Falls, California

This is definitely one of the most unique shots of the falls I got and one I’ve never seen before.

I had to climb over very slippery rocks and get sprayed by the mist coming off of the falls to get this shot, but it was worth it.

More to come…

Eye Candy

McArthur-Burney Falls, Shasta County, California

This shot of McArthur-Burney Falls (also known as Burney Falls to many) I took because I thought it would make a great cover shot. There is plenty of empty space at both the top and the bottom of the photograph for text.

Today, I was originally going to post a close up shot of the falls taken down at the bottom of the trail. But, I decided it needed some work before posting.

I’m going to do a little experimenting with Lightroom 2, our new Photo Management Software to see what I can do to improve it.

Stay tuned. I will be posting a couple more shots of this natural wonder, before moving on to the next place we visited during our road trip.
