The lower cascade of the South Falls at Silver Falls State Park, Marion County, Oregon. The trail offers several viewpoints of this waterfall as you descend, and leads right behind the waterfall. It was late in the day when we made it to the park and the waterfall was completely in the shade, but the sun lit up some fall foliage behind the fall.
This is the lower falls in Letchworth State Park and is definitely just as nice as the middle, just not as tall

The first evening of our trip to the Highlands, after a 9 hour drive and unpacking I decided a quick trip out on to cliff top path with the camera would be a nice way to wind down. 30 mins later I was watching this beautiful sunset. Diabaig is a remote coastal fishing and crofting township in Wester Ross, in the Northwest Highlands of Scotland. Diabaig lies on the north shore of the sea loch of Loch Diabaig, an inlet off the north side of Loch Torridon.
Here's an image from Lower Antelope slot canyon, a truly magical place. The only problem is that it is so magical, that it's overwhelmingly crowded with very limited time to photograph and it somewhat takes the joy out of the experience. There are some other slots in the area, not as magical but also not as crowded. I'm saving more shots from this trip for another time.
This shot is literally right below the car park , so really quick access for this shot . But beware its also very quick access into the water as it is so slippy here..
As many of you know, I have shot the "227" many times. Many of you don't know that there is a lower section to the 227 and until Monday, I've never shot it. I only went half way down the creek, but I have to say....it's better than the upper section.
Lower Lodge in Cockington Village, Torbay, is a Grade II listed building that dates back to the early to mid-19th century. It is made of local stone rubble with red sandstone quoins and Bathstone detail, and has a gabled slate roof. The lodge is terraced into the hillslope, and a sunken drive to Cockington Court passes through the middle of it, while a lane is carried over the drive behind the lodge.
This secluded waterfall in Hamilton, Ontario is definitely a great location to photograph, particularly during the fall season.
Lower Slaughter a fascinating name, which derives from 'miry place'. The link is the tiny River Eye, tributary to the nearby river Windrush. Lower Slaughter is just off the Fosse Way. The village is considered to be one of the prettiest in the area and is well photographed and the village has been used for filming and productions.

"Multnomah Falls is the most visited natural recreation site in the Pacific Northwest with more than 2 million stopping by each year to take in the views. Fed by underground springs from Larch Mountain, the flow over the falls varies, but is usually highest during winter and spring. This is also one of the best places in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area to study geology exposed by floods." fs.usda.gov
"The Multnomah people received their name from their chief. Yet, the existence of their great chief named Multnomah has been up for debate. Other Native American tribes in the Columbia River Valley area spoke of him in their oral history, while Oregon historians dismissed him as just a myth. Therefore, there is conflicting evidence of whether or not he was real. However, on top of the oral descriptions of him there were writings including newspapers and journals, which indicate he was indeed real.
Multnomah was chief of tribes ranging much of the Pacific Northwest from Oregon to Canada, and during his 40 years of power he was chief of the Willamettes, as well as war chief of the tribes, ruling from his station on what is known today as Sauvie Island.
Ann Fulton, a history professor at Portland State University, found and collected much of what is known of Chief Multnomah from many written stories. She documented this in her paper The Restoration of an Iłkák'mana: A Chief Called Multnomah. She hoped to bring more awareness to his existence. Particular accounts came from people such as William Tappan and Dr. Elijah White, both agents of Indian tribes. The many verbal and written accounts of Chief Multnomah were similar. He was regarded highly, and many stated that while he was a warrior chief, he was very respected among his people.
It is believed that the end of Chief Multnomah's reign occurred with the eruption of Mount Hood during the 1780s. Later in 1805 when Lewis and Clark reached Sauvie Island they wrote of the “mulknomah” people. This referenced Chief Multnomah, as well as the group of tribes that made up his people." Wikipedia
Enjoy this last Sunday of October!
