The Waterfall


This stream and waterfall are not deep in the woods. They are in a garden designer's back yard! He had a hill behind his house, and two years ago designed a stream that is 100 feet long and meanders down the hill to a pond at the bottom. Two 1/3 horsepower pumps are all it takes to get the water up the hill. After building the stream, he carefully added rocks and moss and plants along the edges of the waterway, and this detail is the result of all his work. I was lucky to photograph it in the soft light on a rainy day, today. Hard to imagine that this hasn't been here forever.
