Shoshone Falls in Twin Falls Idaho is often referred to as the “Niagara of the West.” The Falls drop 212 feet, a little further than Niagara Falls, and when the water flows at full capacity it is a stunning sight. The snowpack was light during the winter before this image was taken, and due to drought conditions and the need for water for irrigation, there was very little water flowing throughout late spring and summer. There are a few different lookout points to view the falls from, and one platform is quite a distance from the park, along the Canyon Rim Trail. It is one of my favorite spots, because I can follow a side trail along the top of the canyon rim to a much better viewpoint. On the morning that this image was taken, there was some residual wildfire smoke in the air, especially near the horizon. The sun and moon have both been red for weeks as the wildfire season has filled the area with smoke. I used a headlamp to get to the point where I set up my camera, and I focused on the moon and stars in order to get them clearly in focus. After a few practice shots I found the right exposure and ISO settings to keep the floodlight glare under control, and still see the moon and stars clearly.
