I don’t use cyanotype for landscapes that often. Nothing wrong with the result it is just I like gold salt prints a bit better. But sometimes cyanotype really works well for a photo. Here is a Wahclella Falls cyanotype that really captures the beauty of the falls.

You might ask – where is the world is Wahclella Falls? Wahclella is one the dozens of waterfalls in the Columbia River gorge in Oregon. I think it is my favorite but it is not that well known. For starters it is a bit off the usual tourist path. Next, it is a 2+ mile hike on mostly dirt trails. Not a particularly strenuous hike but still some up and down.

But the compensations justify the hike. The river gorge is just beautiful! It is especially beautiful in the rain when a dozen or more small falls form on the sides of the gorge. Finally, the view from the bottom of the falls is absolutely stunning! I hope you enjoy my Wahclella Falls Cyanotype!
