Ricketts Glen State Park is situated along the Allegheny Front in the Pennsylvania mountains. Well known for its waterfalls, Ricketts Glen features a waterfall loop trail along two branches of Kitchen Creek that showcase over twenty waterfalls, one after the other after the other, making this location a waterfall photographers dream! The photograph shown was taken looking downstream just before the drop of the highest waterfall within the park, Ganoga Falls. What caught my eye here was the way in which the fallen leaf litter was catching in the thick green moss of the river stones, allowing the colors to glitter in the water like seasonal jewels.
