Conservation Center Photography Show -- Screw Auger Falls, Grafton Notch State Park, 2008

The Bear River flows through Grafton Notch State Park creating stunning natural scenes with picturesque and powerful waterfalls. Screw Auger Falls is an extended water fall flowing through the gorge formed by the river's flow over millennia. This image was made of the broad expanse of the falls with a long exposure that merges the chaotic water movements into a smooth serene flow, in contrast to the river boulders. Both are overshadowed by the spring trees along the shore.

The image was made with a Toyo 4 x 5 field camera and printed with pigment ink on Hahnemülhe photo rag paper (308gsm weight).  Image size 20.0" x 15.4".
