Running Eagle Falls was selected as our first sunrise shooting spot. To achieve the best composition of the waterfall at sunrise, we'd need to cross a creek, bare feet, to get to the other side. We checked out the place the day before, around lunch time. It was 75F, and yet, the
water was freezing cold. It hurt through your feet into your bones -- pretty unbelievable.
I checked the weather for the next morning -- around 40F. We'd need to get up at 4am to catch the sunrise at 5:31am.
I
couldn't sleep most of the night worrying about the COLD water before
sunrise, and how I'd walk through the rushing water safely... Well, when
we got there, we realized the creek was much deeper than it was during
lunch time the day before. The rest of the story requires imagination.
I
haven't had a chance to process the waterfall photos, but here is the
rushing creek. Picture #2 was the rocks in the water under the sun. So
shinny, crisp -- and cold, still...
