Behind The Veil

Your little slice of Ohio today is this shot of Bridal Veil Falls in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. I used my new tripod to good effect on this one, letting me use a long exposure to get the effect of flowing water. I need to get back to this spot in the fall and really get some color! Oh, wait, I did that already...

Blue Hen

They seem to have had plenty of rain up here lately. Lots of water in the waterfalls. This little rivulet is called Blue Hen Falls. When the snow melts in the spring, it gets really big, but this is plenty of water for this time of year.

The Week Of Thanksgiving

Yep, that's right, Thanksgiving is here, and long-time readers of the blog know what that means. The rest of you will just have to stay tuned. In the meantime, this lovely shot is Bridal Veil Falls in Bedford Reservation in Ohio. Gotta love that fall color!

Here Comes The Bride

Every time I tried to post a picture to my blog this weekend, the system was screwy. So that's why you didn't see any new pictures. But I assure you, I was out there, shooting away. My trip was extended by a few days, so I'm still in Ohio, where temps are in the mid thirties, and they are predicting rain and snow flurries for the next few days. Hooray. I took this shot Sunday, when it was completely overcast, with intermittent rain, but that didn't stop me, and about a dozen other photographers I bumped into, from shooting the fall colors. This is Bridal Veil Fall, located in the Bedford Reservation at the north end of the Cuyahoga Valley. This stream flows into Tinker Creek, which is the largest tributary of the Cuyahoga.

More Brandy, More Wine

I showed you Brandywine Falls earlier, but I had to revisit it later after it had rained. You can see there is a little more water in it now than before. And there's a little more color in the leaves, too, I believe. In the springtime, this entire rockface will be covered in snowmelt.
