Misty Waterfall Reflection Trees

A tranquil scene unfolds as water cascades over a small dam, creating a miniature waterfall. The long exposure captures the motion of the water, blurring it into a silky, ethereal flow. Bare trees stand sentinel on either side, their reflections mirrored in the still water above the dam, adding to the serene and dreamlike quality of the landscape. The fog adds to the beauty of the scene.
