Chasing Cascades at Kings Canyon

In the Sierra Nevada Mountains of California lies Kings Canyon National Park, home to a captivating array of waterfalls. These natural wonders, much like the ancient sequoias in neighboring Sequoia National Park, possess a unique charm and grace. We visited the Roaring River Falls, with its small pool hiding among the cliffs of the valley, and Grizzly Falls, which tumbles more delicately over rocky precipices covering a greater height. I unfortunately did not manage any good photos of the Mist Falls because, as the name suggests, my lens was completely sprayed by them and the trail did not afford a large enough distance for a dry picture!

A Morning at Arch Rock

One of our first stops on our visit to Joshua Tree National Park was Arch Rock. This natural arch is made of granite and stands tall among the Mojave Desert's boulder-strewn landscape. Its unique texture - which to me resembles a goose’s neck and head - make it a popular destination for visitors to the park. During my visit, I was lucky enough to witness the sunrise sunrise at Arch Rock, where the first rays of sunlight illuminated the rock's surface, casting a warm glow over the surrounding desert. I hope you enjoy the photos I am sharing today!
