Ryan Dam


The dams along the Missouri river open wide during late spring and early summer...Ryan Dam is no exception. This shot was taken the last week of June 2010 using Canon 50D camera and Sigma DC HSM OS 18-250mm lens. f/20 aperture, 1/400 sec shutter speed, ISO 200 at 1mm focal length shot off hand. Just enough rainbow showed up to add a bit of color to the shot as well as rich blue sky even without the aid of my crl Polarizer filter. The falls at Ryan dam are what Lewis and Clark dubbed the "Great Falls" as the gazed upon this intimidating obstacle....It now sits tucked outside of town nearly unnoticed by outsiders to the area...a real same considering what a beautiful spot and nice park that is at Ryan Dam.
