Patapsco Park-Avalon Area

I spent most of 2 January 2007 hiking around the Avalon Area of Patapsco Park (just outside of Baltimore, MD). Most of the time was spent around Cascade Falls.

Nice captures from a part of the country so un-like where we live. Thanks for you visit and comments. I feel the white forces the viewer to focus on the image and brightens black and white images. -Jim (California)

John - really enjoyed this gallery, especially the "silky" waterfall shots!
