After an 11 mile hike in Patapsco Valley State Park, I grabbed my camera and went up to photograph Cascade Falls. Shown in an earlier post on Day 46 “A Walk in the Park” I wanted to take the time to think through capturing the waterfalls. There were heavy rains the day before, and the streams and waterfalls were full today.
I did manage to get some lovely compositions with silky water. However on my way back to the car, this cute little miniature husky stole the show. Perfectly adorable with bright blue eyes and superb markings, how could I ever resist that face ! He was a perfect photo model, looking at me with such alertness. Seems he could teach Sunshine a thing or too.

Thank you so much Renee ! Believe me, I was ready to grab that little cutie and RUN !
What an amazing shot of the waterfall. The detail is stunning.
Thank you so much Charlie ! It was so wonderful to be in such a peaceful and serene setting. I didn’t want to leave.
Miniature husky? Oh that would make a great hiking dog!
Oh he was jumping all around full of energy. I wonder how long it lasts.
I want to hug him! Stunning blue eyes…
Aren’t those eyes amazing?
The fall is great! But how could I ever forget that face! Ooooooh, I love that doggy! 🙂
Me too ! I want one now !
Adorable face, Emily, and that waterfall is fabulous. 🙂
Thank you Sylvia. How could I not stop and ask to take a photo. He is awesome!
The dog is adorable.
Isn’t he though?
the waterfall shot is very beautiful, and that puppy is adorable. 🙂
Thank you so very much Vicki for your kind words.
Whoa, when I opened up your post, OMG, I just want those beautiful eyes and the whole thing. Just love it.
As soon as I saw him, I had the same reaction as you. I just wanted to hug and kiss him!
Generally I’m a sucker for a waterfall, but that dog is absolutely beautiful!
I know right Jerry? The Dog is really the star of the day. Who cares about some pretty waterfall.
what a beautiful puppy!! you gotta love those bright blue eyes 🙂
and the waterfall is stunning as well!
i wish you a nice day!
Thank you so much Evelyn. I hope all is well with you and thank you so much for stopping by and visiting.
Both beautiful photos – amazing dog eyes… 🙂
So full of young life and vigor. Now if I could only get eyes like that. 🙂
Interesting focal point in your falls shot…. i find that the log dominates dominates with it’s crisp texture while the water adorns like long soft silky hair tresses. Softens the energy of the cascading waterfall.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment. There was something about that log that just captivated me. Your words are so kind. Thanks for your visit and hope to see you back soon. Bella
Beautiful pup and waterfall. Love the captivating blue eyes! Great shots Emily 🙂
Thank you so very much Judy ! 🙂
Pretty pretty pretty!
Thanks Janet!
Beautiful shot of the Falls, but like you, the puppy stole the show.
So happy to know I’m not the only sucker for that cute as a button puppy.
Wonderful photography! Love that beautiful face and blue eyes this one could melt hearts. The waterfall is stunning with its fullness and great speed, looks like a lovely silk veil clinging to the rocks. Beautiful!
I love that Mary – lovely silk veil. This look is the current fashion in water movement photography. Wonder how long it’ll be so popular. And the dog did melt my heart, he was such a sweetheart.
Not sure which I like best, the husky or the waterfall. On second thoughts, I vote for the husky: great photo!
Oh there is no question – Husky wins hands down! Thanks for commenting Fatima. I appreciate it.
Your four-legged friend has me under his/her spell, and the cotton-candy like waterfall is superb.
Thank you so much for your kind words Tom. The dog is a beauty isn’t he? Don’t you want one now?
Perfect title to that picture!! I once met a litter of husky pups, almost stole one with me when I left, they’re just irresistible. 🙂 Love the waterfall picture too!
Uh Oh…you and me together would quickly be in trouble if there was a basket of cute little miniature husky pups. He is mostly grown – can you imagine his cuteness being even better at a younger age?
That look in his eyes could melt a heart of stone!! :d
Tremendous photo of the falls Emily and super cute pooch!
Thank you so much Phil ! I truly do appreciate you taking the time to visit, look and comment. Hugs, Emily
SO incredibly beautiful, both of them…. BUT THAT FACE, omigosh!!!
Isn’t he just the most adorable thing? If he was in my house, I’d be such a sucker for giving him anything he wanted.
BEAUTIFUL! ❤ ❤
What a gorgeous puppy and a beautiful waterfall, fantastic shots! 🙂
