I decided to get a little closer to the falls, and climbed up the hill on the side of the waterfall. Lots of spray and noise! It was very exhilarating and beautiful.
This is a closer look at the water cascading over Proxy Falls. The patterns created as the water falls over the stair-steps of the basalt columns and moss is like a work of art. For you photographers, this isn't a cropped photo...it was taken at 35 mm and I was actually that close. The noise and spray were overwhelmingly powerful. Quite an experience.
