High Falls
High Falls, Du Pont State Forest, North Carolina
Middle of October turned out to be a touch late for optimum foliage colours further north and up on the parkway, but just about perfect for Du Pont State Forest.
I took this shot as I hiked down to the base in the early morning, expecting shots from there to better this 'through the trees' view. But, with the sun coming up from behind the falls I just couldn't make the base shots work, despite climbing over rocks to get close. I fancy a return visit one day, perhaps nearer to dusk than dawn, to get some alternative views.
