As we were hiking along looking in every direction as well as up and down, scenes like that above appeared over and over again. These natural wonders were so impressive that I found myself with the camera pressed to my nose a good amount of the time. I did take time to look directly at the scenes and soak them in, but there was a compulsion to photograph it all.
As you can see, we were walking between and over logs along the way. This wasn’t a well-groomed path, but a natural hiking trail. I wish I could relay directly the feeling I had while hiking in this valley. It was wild, natural and serene. This was not an “unusual” scene as these panoramas unfolded in front of us on many occasions!
