A spring running through the trees

May 11, 2013

The first time I came upon this spot on the Wahkeena trail I was absolutely stunned. It is hard to take in what you are seeing. It doesn’t really seem possible.

This is Horsetail Falls, I walked this one for a while looking for that perfect pose. Then I found her, she was following the shape of the tree.

Notice: How to navigate “Life in Russia”

Recently I decided it was time to make it easier to navigate "Life in Russia". When you enter any page on my blog (listed above) you will have the ability to find all the posts related to this page at the bottom of each section. Currently all the Fairy Tales are referenced on their page and well as Proverbs, Sayings, and idioms. The others are still under construction but hopefully ready soon. Thanks for your patience as I continue to improve the way you can access posts.
