Ragged Falls under a moonless sky

Description

a fresh challenge, and am I ever glad I took it to task. The initial idea was to have the moon, illuminate this tiny canyon and carry on with my time exposure of the Ontario sky in early May. Well the Moon was not rising for several hours, and I began to improvise. Painting the Impressive and noisy falls with my Headlamp and trying hard Not to go overboard proved to be another challenge. Being in the wild, pitch black, on a ledge with a big fall to a major rapids and waterfall, gives a New meaning to Patience. (Bear-Spray and an extra Monopod just in case… ) I had driven past this attraction, near the entrance to Algonquin Park many times. Sadly I had just discounted it as another little rapids… What a mistake. Ragged Falls is a gorgeous huge S shaped cascade and there is good hiking and unlimited photo options. 
Happy that I did something cool with my first impressions. Lots of other good shots from the shoot. This is a trophy to me. And lots of good learning. Will pay attention to how accurate my headlamp can throw a soft light. Colour temp etc… new details
