Nooksock River

Description — This is the Nooksock River in northwest Washington, near the Canadian border.  It was photographed in September 2013 in mid-afternoon.

Camera Nerd Info — Mamiya 7 II medium-format camera, Mamiya 43mm f/4.5. N lens, exposure not recorded.

Commentary — I was here to photograph Nooksock Falls nearby, but the falls are not easily accessible; in fact there were signs warning that people had been killed trying to photograph the falls.  So I settled for photographing the Nooksock River a bit upstream from the falls.

Although I didn’t record the exposure, I’m sure the shutter duration was one second or two seconds, because that is what I use when photographing flowing streams.
