An oft overlooked treasure

Nestled within the breathtaking beauty of Montana’s Glacier National Park, McDonald Creek Falls is a wonder of nature. It captivates the senses and offers a unique and rewarding photography experience. The falls can be found near the west entrance of the park. With a height of 25 feet, it offers a serene and picturesque view.

The stunning McDonald Creek Falls is one of the main attractions of the park and it is a photographer’s paradise. The crystal clear waters cascade down the rocky cliffs surrounded by lush greenery. It forms a perfect backdrop for a photo shoot. The sight is mesmerizing and awe-inspiring, beckoning photographers to capture its beauty.

As I arrived at the falls, I was immediately struck by its magnificence. The sound of the waterfalls was like music to my ears. The cool mist rising from the cascading water droplets provided a refreshing respite from the summer heat.

The best time to photograph McDonald Creek Falls is during the early morning or late afternoon. At those times, the light is soft and warm, enhancing the colors and contrast in the scene. I arrived in late afternoon and was treated to a magical display of light as the sun began to set over the surrounding mountains.

The lush greenery and moss-covered rocks surrounding the falls provided a natural frame for my shots. I experimented with different angles and compositions, capturing the beauty of the waterfalls in all its glory. I focused on the details of the falls, highlighting the intricate patterns of the cascading water and the natural textures of the rocks.

Adventures in Photography

As the sun dipped lower in the sky, I switched to a neutral density filter to capture the waterfalls in slow motion, blurring the water for a dreamy effect. The long exposures created a silky-smooth effect on the water, adding a sense of movement and fluidity to the scene.

The unique lighting and natural surroundings of McDonald Creek Falls provided a stunning backdrop for my photographs. I was in awe of the beauty of the falls and the surrounding area, and I couldn’t help but feel a sense of calm and tranquility as I captured the scene.
