This is our local falls just after the deluge of rain we had late last year. Must get up there more often.
Happy Friday out there :)
October was the rainiest month in history in the Seattle area, which created a huge volume of turbulent water to roar down the falls.
Snoqualmie Falls is 270 feet tall and anywhere from 50 -150 feet wide. On this day it sure was at it's maximum width. The building at the top is the Salish Lodge, formerly the Snoqualmie Falls Lodge, famous for it's breakfasts.

A view of Lower Yellowstone Falls from Artist Point in Yellowstone National Park. This on the Artist Point Trail on the South Rim. #NPS #YellowstoneNationalPark #LowerYellowstoneFalls #ArtistPointTrail
Okay, I have to admit this one might be over edited, it looks more like a painting, rather than a photo from the camera. That's why I struggled whether should keep it in my collection or go for another try.
Any suggestion for this image?
Again, thanks all for your browsing and comments:)
Amicalola Falls State Park & Lodge is an 829-acre Georgia state park located between Ellijay and Dahlonega in Dawsonville, Georgia.

Palouse Falls is among the last active waterfalls on the Ice Age floods path. It drops 200 feet and was named the official waterfall of Washington State in 2014.
Alaska's Virgin Creek falls has limited ways to capture it. It was a treacherous slippery drop to reach this level of the falls for this perspective. It would have been destructive to get any closer so glad to get this.
"Virgin Creek Falls: The nicest little waterfall hike in Alaska.
Hikes in Alaska don’t come any sweeter than Virgin Creek Falls. The falls are small but beautiful, and they generate a respectable roar as they come shooting into a misty, almost tropical-feeling grotto." hikingalaska.net
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
Most people shoot these falls in front of the rocks, I went to extra effort to place myself here to use them in the foreground.
Erawan Falls is 3.5-4 hours from downtown Bangkok, and I arrived at 7:30 AM to avoid the crowds which came by 9 AM. Swimming is allowed in all of the falls, so getting people free shots has a limited window. Humidity was at 95% which presented lots of camera issues along with my sweating. But in the end, I am happy with the shots.
I hesitated to take LE at Niagara Falls. The mist was too strong at anytime due to strong falls’ dropping force… It is so attractive to me, I have to try again and again, even with water sprays covering me and camera all the time… First time after lockdown, surprisingly lots of people here, the light was bright during daytime, had to use LEE 10-stop filter… The filter was covered with water sprays even a few seconds exposed outside. Here is Niagara Falls…
Trentham Falls is one of the longest single drop waterfalls in Victoria, Australia plunging some 32 metres over basalt columns. Trentham Falls was formed some five million years ago from molten lava rapidly cooling as it flowed along the old Coliban River valley. At the base of the Falls, quartz gravel and the former river bed can be seen.

I am learning the fine art of stitching together images. You have to stand so close in the area where I found this waterfall, I couldn't shoot the entire waterfall. So I have combined my upper and lower shots together. It's a skill I need to master.
Shotgun Falls is an easy to reach Oregon waterfall, dropping over the distinct basalt formations which produce so many of the lower elevation waterfalls in the foothills of the Willamette Valley. The falls, plunging 96 feet along the small Shotgun Creek, it is the only cataract currently cataloged in the Molalla River basin.
Mooney Falls is the fourth main waterfall in the Havasu Canyon.
The falls are about 210 feet (64 m) tall and fall into a rocky pool.
The Havasu Creek is well known for its blue-green color and distinctive travertine formations. This is due to large amounts of calcium carbonate in the water that formed the limestone that lines the creek and reflects its color so strongly (source: Wikipedia).

Niagara Falls, one of the world's most stunning natural wonders, linked with the U.S. by the Rainbow Bridge. The photo was taken at Horseshoe Falls, at the Canada side. Due to the strong falls power dropping force, the water spray is like raining all the time, even on a sunshine day. My camera and me were wet due to the strong mist and sprays from the falls, but luckily had rainbow, double rainbow…
Located in Cherokee North Carolina, probably one of the prettier falls, that is not seen by many people....
Shannon Falls is British Columbia's third highest waterfall (over 1000 feet) and a spectacular sight to behold. I would have preferred a longer exposure but, alas, no tripod on the day so had to make due with handheld in the days before stabilizing lenses. I've got lots of blurry shots of this, as well ;-)
A long exposure of the Horseshoe Falls in Niagara Falls Ontario Canada. A little too much cloud cover on this morning for really good colour at sunrise, but the extra long exposure allowed the camera to pull as much colour out of the scene as possible.
Lower Pistyll falls, taken on a visit to North Wales last March, this is a 30 second exposure version of an upload I did last year still using the same ProND1000 filter....
With the waterfall being 80m tall makes it the UK's tallest single drop waterfall, this is but a tiny part of the falls.
Numa Falls almost frozen over in Kootenay National Park in B.C. Tumbling Peak and the Vermillion Range in the disatance.
Hickeys Falls between Gilgandra and Coonabarabran in New South Wales. I'm told many yowies has been sighted here :-) (The yowie is Australia's version of bigfoot)
This was my only chance to visit this waterfall and the sun was at a bad angle so I did substitute the sky in the shot. (Not something I would normally do)
Blackwater Falls State Park, West Virginia. Blackwater Falls, a 62-foot (19 m) cascade where the Blackwater River leaves its leisurely course in Canaan Valley and enters rugged Blackwater Canyon. It is among the most photographed venues in the state and appears on calendars, stationery, and advertisements. The river is named for its tannin-darkened water. (8/2022)
Early morning blue hour at Horseshoe Falls.
Three photos merged to panorama to get the whole Horseshoe Falls.
Always a wonderful attraction to visit but the falls are not as large as they were several years ago before the adverse weather conditions and landslides.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR VISITS, COMMENTS, AWARDS AND FOR ANY INVITES.
