O Kun de Kun Falls time lapse

The second waterfall on the Baltimore River I visited is called O Kun de Kun Falls, one of only a few plunge waterfalls in the U. P.. The waterfall is named after an Ojibway chief. After having no clouds for the previous falls, I was looking forward to a good time capturing this waterfall. Unfortunately, the sun started to pop out at the most inconvenient time causing some exposure problems.

Upper O Kun de Kun Falls

On the Baltimore River in Ontanagon County Michigan are a couple of unique (in my mind) waterfalls. Upstream from O Kun de Kun Falls is it's little brother, the Upper Falls. It is also called Creamy Peanut Butter Slide according to kayakers. The walk back to the falls is a nice 45 minutes hike to the upper falls and just short walk downstream to the main falls which is my very next project. I loved the interesting rock formations and the multiple stream falls it created. I only wish I could have been able to get some better angles on the rest of the falls. Side note: In the final series of clips you will see a very large wasp nest in the tree on the right side. I was glad it was too cold for them to be around.

Gogebic County MI-Black River waterfalls timelapse

My first trip back up to the U.P. of Michigan in 2013, I decided to just slip across the border to the Black River waterway. I have been here before but did not visit all of the waterfalls on the river. There are five large waterfalls on this section of the river and all five are large and very dangerous. On this day the park was a popular place and this caused a few delays in my work due to the footsteps on the walkways which is pretty much the only way to view most of the falls. The surrounding gorge is very steep and not safe to climb down. I had to return a few weeks later to reshoot Gorge Falls as my footage from the first visit did not turn out. The waterfalls are: Great  Conglomerate Falls, Potawatomi Falls, Gorge Falls, Sandstone Falls and Rainbow Falls.

Morgan Falls Ashland County WI-time lapse

Morgan Falls is a beautiful and unusual waterfall south of Ashland WI. I have been to this waterfall a couple of times in the past and I wanted to recapture it in HD time lapse. I arrived early in the morning with the rising sun and had the place to myself, for a while  Soon, people started to show up wanting to climb the falls. Most waited until I finished up with each series of images I took. I wanted to show all of the different shelves of falls the waterfall has to offer and feel I did that very well.
