This iconic waterfall in Southwest Colorado should be on everyones must see list if you visit the Lake City or Creede, Colorado areas. This was shot right after the sun cleared the mountains to the east. I wanted it full sun, and with the crisp blues skies. And from the lower, less photographed angle. We shot this image in the spring of 2022. I originally shot this waterfall in the late 1980’s on film with my old Canon AE1 with a long exposure. It was one of my favorite images but somehow the negatives got lost through the years. So it was on my list to revisit the location and recreate the shot I had. This is it.
