Ash Cave and Cedar Falls


The weather forecast for Day two of our Hocking Hills hiking adventure predicted rain late in the day, so unlike the previous day, we left our rain coats, umbrellas, and waterproof camera bags back at the cabin, because we started out early.  Mistake!  While taking in the amazing scenery at Ash Cave it began to pour rain.  Fortunately for me, I was lagging behind taking photographs, under the shelter of Ash Cave, while my girlfriends were caught in the deluge.  Not a bad place to get stuck for 10 minutes!

We ran into a photographer who was kind enough to take our photograph before the rain.  Even Evan (the dog) posed for the camera…

The sloped forest hillside afforded beautiful photography opportunities…

Our cabin’s location (only a few miles from Cedar Falls) made it convenient to head back there for lunch before our afternoon hiking at the stunning Rock House, which I’ll save for tomorrow!

  1. Beautiful work. There is something special about photographing in the rain. I was caught in a three day rainstorm camping at Enchanted Rock here in Texas and some of my favorite shots came out of it.

    Thanks for sharing.
