Iconic Multnomah Falls Tunnel View framed by the granite valley

framed by the granite valley wall and the pines below

the bottom of the peak holding deep shadow while the top stays lit

the full moon lit the sandstone walls bright enough to read by

only trains and boats

Presented as a 36" × 15" canvas in a white wood float frame

Iconic Multnomah Falls Tunnel View framed by the granite valleyMultnomah Falls drops 620 feet in two tiers from the basalt cliffs of the Columbia River Gorge Upper Multnomah falls 542 feet, then a small pool, then Lower Multnomah another 69. The Benson Bridge, built in 1914, crosses just above the lower pool; it's the bridge in every famous photo of the falls. Tom shoots in spring, when the cliff is still wet from the melt above.
