How do you think a polarizer would have improved this image?
A polarizer would reduce the reflection of the sky in the water.

If you have ever been to Twin Falls, you have probably seen Shoshone Falls. This was my first time, and it was definitely worth the travel and the park entrance fee. Believe me, it was hard to narrow down the choices. Hope you enjoy them.

On a clear day with the sun at my back, there was a rainbow.

He's not as close as it looks. There is a sheer drop off though.

Couldn't get over that rainbow.

Every dot on the light rock is a pigeon, ready to play chicken with the water. (Download and blow up.)

If you look closely, you can see a double rainbow. I've never seen that in a waterfall before.

Pigeon looking for a pot of gold. (At times like this it's good to have a 30 MP sensor.)

And finally, a Shoshone wannabe on the road out of the park.

Stave three of our south Idaho trip is the waterfalls near Ritter Island. You drive down a dirt rode along the river. You park and follow a narrow foot path along the river. It's an uncrowded, peaceful and beautiful spot.

Our next stop was Ritter Island, which is part of Thousand Springs State Park. Unfortunately it was closed for the season, but what lies outside the part is still pretty good. I'm looking forward to what is inside.
You start by going down a steep windy dirt road that looks like it's headed for a grungy power station. Then you turn a corner and see this. It's like going to a lost world. Remember the falls when you get to part 3.

You find yourself at the bottom of a gorge, and see how far you came down.

You walk along a quiet river.

It's also a popular fishing spot.

Some people are lucky enough to live here.

Wish I had a polarizer with me.

The water is shallow, clear as crystal, and filled with mats of green plants. The color is amazing.

See?

Yes, hoggers, I plan to burden you with a Part 2, and then . . . who knows?
Our first stop in our visit to southern Idaho was Malad Gorge.

This is the path down to the gorge. The bridge spanning the gorge is visible in the upper right.

And a fall bouquet to top it off.

What about a small drop of water on the lens? I think that caused a similar problem for me.

The weather was moody today, and added drama to some of my photos

We have a lovely sunset tonight. (I'll have to take out the wires later.) The unusual clouds make an interesting backdrop for the crescent moon.

Wat a beautiful place. Thanks for the pictures.
