Solitude

Cascades of the Cascade River Easter Sunday morning April 20th 2014. Minnesota's North Shore along lake Superior between Tofte and Lutsen. 6 inches of new fallen snow blanketed the region on Saturday the 19th. My wife and I were the only 2 people near the river before sunrise. Hearing only the early morning calls of birds and the sound of rushing water under the ice, the solitude was superb. Multiple exposures processed in Photomatix HDR (High Dynamic Range) software for color, detail, contrast and sharpening. This image was shot in the exact location as the Spring 2013 shot in this gallery.
