Kinuseo Falls Dawn

(Edited)

Predawn colour lights up the sky and paints a pink hue over the Murray River as it plunges 70m (229 ft) down the majestic Kinuseo Falls. First documented on a western map in 1906, Samuel Prescott Fay provided the first description of the falls in 1914 as part of a scientific expedition. He named the falls “Kinuseo”, which was fish in the native Cree language, due to the abundance of trout he observed above and below the falls. A second expedition in 1927 recorded “Kapaca Tignapy” as a traditional Cree name for the falls translating as “falling water”. Monkman Provincial Park, Northern Rockies, British Columbia, Canada.

Beautiful. I like the lines in the rock with the lines in the water from the long exposure. Very nice. And the sky - gorgeous!

Oh are you saying it takes a lot of work and time and money to travel to places to take great photos? You could also take microcosm photos in your own city or town, those are beautiful too.
