Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho

Intimate water fall on Sawtooth Mountain trail

So many hidden Gems in the Sawtooth mountains of Idaho. After a long hike we stopped for lunch at this little waterfall just down from Toxaway Lake. The falls itself was so loud, so much water cascading and churning over the rocks. Looking at this picture it looks peaceful.
I used a slow shutter speed to get a little visible motion in the water. There were also passing clouds overhead, I patiently waited for a clouds to pass and block the sun. The direct sunlight was just too bright for this scene.
