Lower Falls Morning Light

- Published Summer Edition of Nature Photographer Magazine, 2 page spread page 70 & 72. Part of a Hocking Hills article I wrote
So, I’m at the base of Lower Falls in Hocking Hills State Park and I’m running out of time. In fact, I shouldn’t even be here – the plan was to break camp and head home that morning – no photos.
However, it had rained the day before and many of the falls – including this one – actually had too much water going over them. I also knew from experience that the water flow would be much more accommodating the next morning. So, we said the heck with our schedule and raced though the park as fast as we could – snapping shots along the way!
As the morning flew by, I knew I had to wrap it up – I think I had even put my camera away – when I looked over and saw this shot. Arrgh! I should try it really quick.
So, I quickly set up the tripod in the water, mounted the camera, and snagged this photo. I had all but forgotten about it till I started sorting the photos at home – I’m glad I stayed! I love the way the rock and falls balance each other with the warm morning light just tickling the ledge above and between them.
About Our Prints....
We currently sell both individual prints and completely framed and ready-to-hang prints. Our framed prints are professionally matted, mounted and framed.
Here's a sample of our basic mat and frame:

Framed prints purchased though us are generally a better deal than taking a loose print to your local frame shop since we have a pretty significant discount that we pass along to you. When you receive your print in the mail, it's ready to hang and even comes with the hardware for doing so.
Please note that if you'd like another type of print (canvas for example) or another frame style, we can certainly accommodate you, just use the contact us page and we'll customize the artwork to make it perfect for your home.
Warranty
Our framed prints are guaranteed for as long as you own them against wear, fading, or deterioration. Loose prints are also guaranteed for as long as you own them provided you have them framed under glass using archival materials. We want you to LOVE your prints, so we offer a refund as long as the print or framed print is returned in like new condition within 30 days.
Signature
All prints are signed in one of the lower corners (usually the right hand corner).
Delivery
Delivery time varies and depends on a number of factors, but we always strive to get your prints delivered to you as quickly as possible. I personally inspect each and every piece before it leaves our building. If I'm out of town taking more photos, it can cause a delay, but a good rule of thumb is that a loose print will ship within 2 weeks and a framed print within 3 weeks. That time is significantly shorter if I'm in town at the time the order is placed. If you need a print done by a certain date, you can contact me and I'll be happy to give you an estimated delivery date.
Discounts
We are now offering quantity discounts if you are interested in two or more pieces. Simply contact me with the sizes and names of the images you are interested in and I will be happy to get you a quote. The more pieces you order, the better the discount.
Thanks for your interest!
