Varden Falls 1

As I was driving home from (of all things) a dentist appointment this morning, on a back country road in PA I've rarely been on, I noticed as I was going up a road, a series of ponds... each one a bit higher than the other. I thought there has to be a stream and falls somewhere, so I turned around and went down a side road. Sure enough, much to my amazement was this beautiful scene of about five separate stepped falls... probably the site of a mill at one time. I can't find it on PA Waterfalls, so I think of it as an early Christmas present to me. I had my camera, but not my tripod. I took as many shots as I could before my fingers froze. It was really overcast, and last minute the sun came out.

This one was shot at ISO-80, 1/500th, f-4. Larger version posted too. Have many others I shot at slower speeds using the bridge as my brace. Any C&C welcomed!
