Deer Lick Falls is a small ephemeral waterfall. When we had a week of rain I figured it was a good time to get a picture with water actually running. This is an HDR picture, also using a CPL filter.

Hemlock Ravine Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. This is a small waterfall, not more than 3.5 ft high. It requires a lot of rain to get water going over it. This photo was after several days of on and off rain with the last rainfall about 12 hours before it was taken. EOS R6m2 @ SS 8 sec,

This is a man-made structure that was built to capture silt from Gaulley Run before it provided water to the Ohio-Erie canal. Now it's a picturesque relic from the past.

This is the small falls just above the main Blue Hen Falls with some of Spring Creek leading to it.

This is a closer view of the upper part of Blue Hen Falls.

My real goal was Buttermilk Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park that I previously posted because I had never photographed them before. However, Blue Hen Falls are along the way, so I took some pictures of them too.

Buttermilk Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. I thought this log with mushrooms provided some foreground interest while showing the bottom of the falls in the background.

I liked how the water was cascading over the top of the falls in this telephoto picture.

Buttermilk Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The bottom of the falls was a mess with trees that gone over them, so it was a challenge to get an interesting and pretty picture. I thought this log with mushrooms provided some interest and a leading line.

I was walking back to my car after taking pictures of a waterfall and found these. I forgot to change the aperture to blur the background so I did that in Lightroom.

Compared to many other waterfalls these aren't all that "great" but for this otherwise small tributary of the Cuyahoga River they are.

My summer project is to take pictures of waterfalls using neutral density filters in and around the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. This one is the inspiration for this project. It is the Quary Rock Falls in the Chagrin Reservation taken in 2024 after a heavy rain.

Every time we go to our beach house I get a sunrise.

As today is my 65th Birthday and I was in Iceland 5 weeks ago and took this picture of one of my favourite places in the world I thought I would share this shot from the dunes of Vestrahorn Mountain. As this is also my 100th post and 8 years since I last went to Iceland so I had no shot of my...
