Landscape photography from the UK and USA by Nick Dautlich

waterfalls and rivers

The Columbia River and surrounding areas in the PNW are packed with waterfalls and gorges, incredible at almost any time of year. The excitement and noise of capturing these often giant cascades is truly thrilling and are always a joy to photograph.

My absolute favourite waterfall. Probably. It was a small perfect beauty in the PNW.
