I got to the trail just as the sun was coming over the mountains and I knew I was racing against the clock of sunrise.  I rushed through the forest to capture a few waterfall shots leading up to Ouzel Falls.  By the time I reached the falls the sun was just cresting over the trees and about to instill some harsh light on the water.  I snapped a few shots before that happened and was able to capture the essence of one of my favorite falls in the state.
