More Arroyo San Jose

This one is from my outing last weekend.

This is the third waterfall on Arroyo San Jose (35 ft. high). It is probably my favourite of the four waterfalls on this creek, and it is probably because of the difficulty getting to it. It is quite dangerous to get down to, requiring a very steep descent, on a slippery slope, with not much to hold onto. Once down at the falls, it is particularly difficult to photograph as well. You cannot get right down to the creek, so I was taking the photo on the side of the steep slope, planting my foot against a tree for support so I would not fall, and trying to setup my camera and tripod in a stable enough spot. It worked, and I kinda like how this photo turned out, actually. It is not clean due to the branches at the bottom, but I do not think they detract from the photo, in fact I think they enhance it in some odd way.
