Nelson Falls, South-west Tasmania. There was so much spray coming of the falls that it was very hard to keep the lens dry to get a shot.
Wizard Falls streams down the Metolius River as autumn colors burnish its banks in gold, amber and red. Not a plunge falls but more of a deep gorge sliced between volcanic rocks that form its bed, Wizard Falls resembles more of a rapids.
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.
Located in Cherokee North Carolina, probably one of the prettier falls, that is not seen by many people....
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…
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)
Numa Falls almost frozen over in Kootenay National Park in B.C. Tumbling Peak and the Vermillion Range in the disatance.
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)
Spectacular Whangarei Falls is a 26m high waterfall surrounded by park and native New Zealand bush. There is plenty of parking, a picnic area and free entry. You can view the waterfall from a choice of 3 platforms above the falls or by walking down a well-maintained gravel track to the bottom.
Whangarei Falls is located in Whangarei Scenic Reserve. The classic curtain waterfall is part of the Hatea River and one of the most popular swimming spot in the area. Easy access and a well-maintained Scenic Reserve make this waterfall one of New Zealand Must See Waterfalls.
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.
Pleased I was able to finally get to this iconic Mt. Rainier waterfall. It's famous for lining up with Rainier nicely. Last time I was here the trails were closed for maintenance.
I'd heard Myrtle can be a tough shoot, so was here in the dark. Wasn't sure why. Short hike to get to it. It is an easy shoot actually, for just one shooter. No room for another to set up. Can't see the falls for the trees, except for this one small window.
The smoky skies enhanced the rosy glow that Rainier gets for a short time each sunrise. Who needs sleep when you can get up and begin a day with sights like this? A nap later helps tho.
Friday is here! Have a wonderful day and weekend!
While visiting Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore on Lake Superior near Munising, Michigan, we stopped by Horseshoe Falls. It sits on private property and requires an admittance fee but we feel it is worth it. This particular day was drizzly and miserable but the falls continued to show off its beauty.

The Krimml Waterfalls (German: Krimmler Wasserfälle), with a total height of 380 metres (1,247 feet), are the highest waterfall in Austria.[1] The falls are on the Krimmler Ache river and are located near the village of Krimml in the High Tauern National Park in Salzburg state.
Krimmler Waterfalls is a tiered waterfall. The waterfall begins at the top of the Krimmler Ache valley, and plunges downward in three stages. The upper stage has a drop of 140 metres, the middle of 100 metres, and the lowest a drop of 140 metres. The highest point of the waterfall is 1,470 metres above sea level.
The Krimmler Ache is a glacial stream whose flow varies greatly with season. Its volumetric flow in June and July is 20,000 m³/h (about 5.28 million gallons per hour), while in February it is only 500 m³/h (about 0.13 million gallons per hour). The greatest measured flow was on 25 August 1987, when it was 600,000 m³/h, or almost 160 million gallons per hour.
After the falls, the river joins the Salzach, which flows to the Inn, then into the River Danube and finally to the Black Sea.
To ensure that tourists could see more of the waterfall without difficulty, Ignaz von Kürsinger, from Mittersill, created a path to the upper part of the waterfall. In 1879, the Austrian Alpine Club improved the road to provide a more panoramic view. About 400,000 people visit the falls annually. The misty spray of the waterfall creates ideal growth condition for hundreds of mosses, lichens and ferns. The surroundings are the habitat for 62 bird species.[3]
There is a negative impact on the local residents due to the high traffic level in a small village, and because of erosion to the road.
After recent rain the falls were dancing. No tripod was used. Just rested the camera on the railing of the viewpoint and waited for family to stop moving around. Monday morning has dawned sunny here but it will rain later. Thanks for visiting in our summer time as it draws to a close. And just a touch of William Wordsworth:
"What more he said I cannot tell,
The Torrent down the rocky dell
Came thundering loud and fast;
I listened, nor aught else could hear;
The Briar quaked--and much I fear
Those accents were his last."
All good things must come to an end and so it is with my series on Waterfalls captured on my Autumn adventure into the North of Ontario. For those still interested in seeing more from this trip I will be posting other landscape scenes throughout the winter on my photo page and groups. The scene depicted here is the view down the chutes of King’s Falls near North Frontenac Ontario captured in my now favorite waterfall shutter speed range. I wish all a safe Happy Holiday period and Hopefully a better New Year than last as for my photo shooting friends wishing you all great light and interesting skies.

A location not easy to photograph, I have been here at twice before and each time something or other means you cannot get quite the shot you are after and this day was one of those days. Also here you really need to take images in portrait mode and for some reason find it not as easy as landscape mode.
The day here was as usual on my last few holidays here and in the lakes, raining. Therefore could not get into the right spot and had to get out the sports lens. This particular image is quite far into the falls itself, sun above at this time of year and catching sunlight on the moss and rocks reflecting in the water...
South Falls has a drop of 177 feet. It is one of the most popular waterfalls in the Silver Falls State Park because it is a short walk from a parking lot. However to get to this vantage point, one has to make a steep half mile hike.
Happy Waterfall Wednesday!
