Salmon Leaping Waterfall Alberta Evening Light in beside a tidal inlet in Alberta

Salmon Leaping Waterfall Alberta Evening Light

by Adriano Barron

Rich amber sunset light washes over a turbulent tidal inlet in late spring Alberta, illuminating a silver salmon mid-air as it arcs against the spray. Low-hanging gray clouds press close to the water surface, creating a dramatic backdrop for the fish's muscular leap. The water churns white where the current meets the falls, against the dark, wet rocks lining the stream bed. From behind the subject, the powerful curve of the salmon's body is visible, its scales catching the honeyed glow. Droplets hang suspended in the air, frozen in time by the falling water. at the edge is the sharp, glistening edge of a water droplet clinging to the tip of the fish's tail fin.
