Tennessee has a good many State Parks. I am more likely to go to the Great Smoky Mountains National Park or the Big South Fork National Recreation Area than anywhere, but I’ve wanted to see Cummins Falls, the centerpiece of Cumins Falls State Park, for some time and a few months ago managed to get over there. I was not disappointed. This is HDR, two shots combined in Aurora HDR, my new favorite HDR program.

This gorgeous waterfall is a short hike into Cummins Falls State Park in Jackson County, Tennessee. I didn't have enough time to hike to the bottom, but I did go to the top. I hope to make it back and shoot it from below.

I have not been back to visit Cumins Falls for some time, but I did revisit my last shoot there and found this capture to be a good candidate for conversion to black and white. So that's what I did.
Kicking up clouds of dust, CECX (Cummins Inc.) Tier-4 "Clean Diesel" Demonstrator #1919 accelerates quickly out of Jasonville, Indiana with an INRD train for interchange with CSX at Terre Haute. Yes, it sounds a little like a bus, albeit a bigger, more powerful one. The locomotive runs with the QSK-95, Cummins' 16-cylinder 4400-hp prime mover.
Southern Indiana's repowered Alco S2M #103 shoves its short train into the CSX interchange at Jeffersonville. The SIND was a unique little shortline comprised almost entirely of former interurban trackage. They pretty much existed to switch one customer, the large Heidelberg cement plant in Speed, IN. Operations changed, and the Louisville & Indiana now serves the plant, making the SIND essentially redundant. The railroad has since shut down and its pair of Alcos are for sale, last I heard.
Back in 2003 on the isolated 3'6' (1067mm) gauge network on South Australia's Eyre Peninsula, up to three grain trains per day operated to numerous country area silo locations.
On 3 September 2003, the large bunker complex (out of sight to the left) at Cummins north of Port Lincoln saw two trains on the same day. Australia Railroad Group Alco DL531s 873/850/865 have pulled forward from the bunker siding and now wait for DA6/869/851 to propel their train into the siding, so they can then run around and head south to Port Lincoln.
The locos carry Australia Southern Railroad logos, but by this time the Genesee & Wyoming subsidiary was know as Australian Railroad Group.

Cummins Falls State Park
Cookeville, TN
The waterfalls is in Jackson County. It has a Cookeville address, but Cookeville is actually in Putnam County.
Located on the beautiful Blackburn Fork State Scenic River, this idyllic 211-acre site in Jackson County is home to Tennessee’s eighth largest waterfall at 75 feet high. Cummins Falls is formed on the Eastern Highland Rim and has been a favorite scenic spot and swimming hole for residents of Jackson and Putnam counties for more than 100 years. Cummins Falls also has been listed as one of the ten best swimming holes in the United States by Travel & Leisure and Conde Naste magazines.
Cummins Falls’ rich history includes a time when Indians used the area to track the numerous buffalo that wallowed in the river’s shallow areas. In the 1790s, Sergeant Blackburn, a veteran of the Revolutionary War and for whom the Blackburn Fork State Scenic River was named, was awarded the land in lieu of a pension. The land was acquired by John Cummins in 1825, and he used the land to build the first of two mills. Because of his growing clientele, a larger second mill was built in 1845. Local residents would visit the mills and the falls for both commerce and recreation.
The mill was washed away during the great flood of 1928, but cars and paved highways had already begun to make the trek to Cummins Falls more accessible. The land was not rebuilt, but stayed with the Cummins family for more than 180 years until efforts by the Tennessee Parks and Greenways Foundation to purchase the land through private and public donations for resale to the state of Tennessee.

Wave is a sweeping arch of bright red poppy heads suspended on towering stalks, by artist Paul Cummins and designer Tom Piper.
This breath-taking sculpture - along with Weeping Window, a cascade comprising several thousand handmade ceramic poppies seen pouring from a high widow to the ground below - was initially conceived as one of the key dramatic sculptural elements in the installation Blood Swept Lands and Seas of Red at the Tower of London in the autumn of 2014. Over the course of thier time at the Tower, the two sculptures were gradually surrounded by a vast field of ceramic poppies, each one planted by a volunteer in memory of a British or Colonial life lost during the First World War. In their original setting they captured the public imagination and were visited by over five million people.
The two sculptures, created to mark the centenary of the outbreak of war, have been brought to audiences at venues across the United Kingdom as part of the 14-18 NOW programme. As with all of 14-18 NOW's projects, the presentation of these sculptures to new audiences aims to prompt a new nationwaide dialogue around the legacy of the First World War.
Fort Nelson offers a unique setting for Wave extending the iconic artwork's life and impact and making it accessible to even more people.
The Fort is one of five built on Portsdown Hill in the 1860s as part of a large ring of defences to protect the naval base of Portsmouth. In 1914 Fort Nelson was a training base, where Royal Garrison Artillery troops were trained to use 60-pounder breech-loading guns. When the First World War broke out these troops were sent to France. Artillery would become a key weapon in the conflict. The Fort itself became a transit base for soldiers including Kitchener's Volenteers on thier way to the Western Front. Fort Nelson now displays large artillery pieces from Royal Armouries' national collection of arms and armour, including the British Army's largest surviving gun, the 18-inch, 180-tonne Railway Howitzer.
