Winter at Rifle Falls State Park, Colorado

We ended up at Glenwood Springs with my wife's family for part of Christmas this year and got a chance to swing by Rifle Falls State Park. We found the triple falls in this gorgeous half-frozen state.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and wishing all of you all the best in 2014!

Image Notes: this is a two-frame vertorama in order to have enough field of view for the subject and no HDR was used. I am always amazed how much dynamic range is in a single RAW file at lower ISO. For the longer 30 second exposure I used a 10-stop B+W ND black glass filter.
