Pyramid Creek is very tranquil and soothing during the fall, unlike the roaring torrent seen during the spring snow melt. (see photo below) - Desolation Wilderness, California

Highway 560, North Shore, Kauai
Located literally at the end of the road, Ke'e Beach is probably the most visited beach on Kauai. The famed Kalalau Trail begins at the western end of the beach. Several movies and min-series have been filmed here such as The Thorn Birds and Castaway Cowboys. Ke'e's inviting lagoon is teaming with fish and perfect for snokeling. Beware, however of the Puka Ulua, an opening on he left side from the lagoon to the sea. Currents can be very strong here. People often fish for the large, prized Ulua fish in this area. A short walk towards Ha'ena provides a panoramic view of the Na Pali Coast. Keep walking toward the Limahuli Stream. This is where Taylor Camp was located - the largest, most noted hippie colony on Kauai. Founded by the brother of actress Elizabeth Taylor, this colony had up to 100 residents before the state condemned the land and evicted them. In the opposite direction, walk down the path above the reef channel along a low rock wall. Look uphill to the site of Ka Ulu a Paoa Heiau. This ancient religious site was dedicated to Paoa, a friend of the legnedary Lohiau, lover of Pele, the volcano goddess. A shrine to Laka, goddess of the hula, is also located in a hillside cleft behind the heiau platform.

Taken in Wittenberg a hamlet of Woodstock, NY at Kenneth Wilson State Campground. This stream leads into Yankeetown Pond a larger stream that was damned to make the pond.
The southern section of the Catchwater Drain north of Skellingthorpe Road in Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
The drain was created by architect Sir John Rennie as part of the Lincoln West Drainage scheme in 1816 to make the lowlands on the west of the city more marketable for the landowners such as Lord Monson.
The Catchwater Drain runs from Skellingthorpe and through Swanpool and Boultham. It meets the River Witham at the end of Atham Terrace at a crossway junction with Sincil Drainage Dyke. Part of the drain runs into the Witham, part of it turns north and runs alongside the River until Coulson Road where it joins the Main Dyke and flows into the River Witham.
