Seattle Times Pictures of the Year 2010

Feb. 22: Michael Daniels, 16, a Franklin High School student, jumps from rock to rock in the sun on a Sunday afternoon at Snoqualmie Falls. Daniels said it was his first time at the waterfall. "It's beautiful,"' he said. "Before going to an assignment around the Fall City-Carnation area, I stopped by Snoqualmie Falls to look for a feature photo on a sunny, Sunday afternoon last February. The waterfall is a refreshing break from the city into the natural world - and a great place for people-watching. On previous trips to the falls, I've met a Cambodian monk, a steelhead fisherman, East Indian families with strollers and kayakers. That day, I met Franklin High School student Michael Daniels after I took a photograph of him rock jumping." - Erika Schultz
