Rush Hour

Rush Hour by Tony DeSantis Photography

Life is anything but a rush hour up in Mt. Rainier. But this sweet little falls is rushing in every direction like the 5-57-22 interchange.
Last day of the trip I drove up to Rainier in the rain really just for this shot. Hoping for more but knew i would at least get this. Rainier was totally socked in so there were no reflections in lakes or snow capped mountain shots and with the rain there wasn't going to be any hiking. Call me lazy but if it wasn't right off the road I wasn't going after it. Besides my legs were a little sore from the 13 mile Ramona falls hike. But that is a totally different story.
On this day I did get a few other shots but they are still waiting on processing.

Today I am back home so I will try to catch up on comments and everyones photo's.
