Spring Explosion

The rivers are running!  The rivers are running!  It's been a long time coming this year, but the rivers are all open now and flowing freely on their way to Lake Superior.  It's a great time to head out and photograph the "rush" of spring.  This photograph was made last week at Gooseberry Falls State Park just north of Two Harbors, MN and shows the water exploding into the air just before it drops over the top of Lower Gooseberry Falls.  Gooseberry is one of the most enjoyable rivers to photograph because of the nice trails along both sides of the river which provide for infinite photo possibilities.
