Marymere in a Tall Frame

A vertical frame of Marymere Falls — the water falls the full height of the cliff, soft and white against moss.

Marymere Falls

Marymere Falls already sits in the catalogue as a wider view. This frame is the vertical version — the water running the full height of the cliff, white and soft against moss.

The trail brings you close enough that the fall fills a tall sensor. Ferns and wet rock at the edges keep it from floating in empty space.

I let the shutter go long enough to silk the water without turning the ferns to mush. A little motion in the foliage is fine; lost detail is not.

Same walk as the mossy rainforest frame. Different stop, different proportion.

From the bag

Tripod, low ISO, shutter long enough for the silk effect. Composition is the full drop from lip to pool, centred, with moss and ferns holding the sides.
