Description
Beautiful Fairy falls in Columbia River Gorge in Oregon, USA on a fine autumn day. Overcast day provided beautiful even lighting for this waterfall scene. I created this image on October 26 2012.
Fairy Falls is a veil type cataract along an unnamed spring-fed side-creek in Wahkeena Canyon. Hikers traveling the Wahkeena trail will cross the creek just in front of the falls on a makeshift footbridge. The intimacy of the oft-photographed setting more than makes up for the lack of majesty of the falls themselves. At twenty feet high, it is downright paltry compared to dozens of Gorge cousins - but it continues to have tremendous appeal for visitors. The falls fan out as it dribbles down the rock-face like an ostentatious lobby water feature, then quaintly trickles some thirty feet downstream to meet the main Wahkeena Creek.
