Dry Creek Falls Hike - January 2015 - Part 5

These next two are both made up pf more than 1 image. Downside of shooting with a 50mm fixed lens, not a wide view of nature. SO, to improvise I combine them in Photoshop.

 

Dry Creek Falls was so pretty! I loved that it was still slightly frozen all around. Which also meant, it was very cold here. :P I would definitely recommend this hike!

I was definitely not prepared for how cold it was closer to the falls. Gloves are now a essential for all my hikes I do in the winter. My fingers were pretty much not functioning, which isn't helpful when trying to shoot manual.

Close ups are one of my favorite things to capture when I am hiking. You have to be looking to find the gems, which is fun for me. Keeps me entertained while walking through the woods :)

I love the dew drops on this spider web! It amazes me such a tiny creature can make something so beautiful.

 It's always a challenge to get my dog, Mocha to look at the camera. She totally knows when I'm trying to take a picture, and deliberately looks away 90% of the time :P

The fog was gorgeous, we were hiking through the clouds! Made the woods seem spooky, and pretty. If that's possible to be both at the same time.

Back on January 3rd, I went on a hike with my friend Sonny, and my dog, Mocha. It was such a fun hike (which I've done before), I had never done it in fog before. Its relatively easy, and not too steep. This week, you'll get to follow throughout the hike in 12 pictures :) Enjoy, and check back Mon-Fri this week for new posts!
