Description Located in the heart of the Columbia Gorge National Scenic Area, the Multnomah Falls Lodge was built in 1925.

In the background, the 620ft waterfall plumets from Larch mountain. It is the second highest year-round waterfall in the nation.

Thank you so much for taking the time to critique my shot. I am pleased that you like it so much.
I agree about the lights...I took pictures again the next day and without the lights it didn't have the same depth.

It reminded me of a Thomas Kinkade painting - except your photo is far, far better than anything of his!!!

Well, thank you for saying so. I was thinking Thomas Kinkade, too, when I saw my shot.

Looks like a Thomas Kincaid painting. I mean that as a compliment.

You are one helluva lucky ass girl for being able to visit a place like that. I swear it could be anyone's dream or wish come true to just see something like that. Man I wish I was you that day you took the photograph.

This place is about 3 hours from where I live, and I have visited it many times. Autumn is my favorite, with all the colors and the moody atmosphere. I hope you get to go there sometime.

I almost wish that there was a break in the trees to get a full-on view of the waterfall and possibly the bridge... but that's not exactly something we can fix! I think I want to live there... FOREVER. It's so beautiful, I love the coloring. Thank you!

Paula, it is a truly spectacular setting. The way the nature’s grandiose is juxtaposed with the inviting glow and warmth of the domestic, artificial and yet so seemingly synergic airs of the lodge is sublime. Looks like a longish exposure shot which imparted magic onto the lantern. A very endearing self-portrait as well. Best of luck. (Do not smoke )

Quite a stunning shot given the location! (yes, I know it quite well)
Very warm and cozy looking.. don't think I've ever seen it that way.
So of course now I'll be forced to go out there when autumn hits! (I usually do that anyway, but still!)
Kudos!

This is beautiful. I wish I could have been there during fall. Unfortunately I was there in late November so the scenery wasn't nearly as beautiful as it is here. And how in the world did you get such a great shot without any tourists cars in the forefront? When I was there it was overrun...

La-Vita-a-Bella In reply to msbelle442 [2010-02-22 15:56:33 +0000 UTC]

This was taken in early November, so you didn't miss it by much. As for the lack of tourists, it was getting dark and it was raining so the people were pretty much on their way out. I just stood in the rain, umbrella over my camera, and waited for people to get out of the way. The opportunities were few and far between, but I managed.

well it's lovely. The day I went was cloudy and WINDY and cold. I'd hope that would drive people away, but it did not. I very much love your gallery.

Most of the time when I go there, there are a lot of people. And it's pretty much always windy there. Have you hiked to the top? There's also a loop trail that goes over to Wahkeena Falls. Very nice trail.

I'm too old and asthmatic to hike to the top, unfortunately! I did go up to the bridge and got some good shots there.

You're never too old, but I'll give you the asthmatic part. Standing on the bridge always takes my breath away.
