McDonald Creek

McDonald CreekMcDonald CreekAs we hiked along McDonald Creek, we could hear the roar of rushing water growing louder. Coming through the dark, shaded trail, we were suddenly greeted by a beautiful waterfall. This image captures the creek as it winds its way toward the falls. Without a tripod and with the challenging mix of deep shadows and bright sunlight, I did my best to handhold the shot at a slower shutter speed. Afterward, we sat along the rocks for a while, simply taking in the sights and sounds of Glacier National Park.
