OT - Return to Rickett's Glen
After my brief 2-hour tour of Rickett's Glen two years ago, I knew I had to return. As it happens, I was able to get back there this year, but again for only a few short hours. I got to see 4 more waterfalls, of which I only photographed 3 (the fourth was a bit over-populated...)

Results are at my preview gallery. Thanks for looking!

Nice Les
I grew up in Pennsylvania, but have only photographed once at Rickets Glen on a rainy day in Summer. I would love to go back in Fall!

Nice collection! Looks like you had perfect waterfall shooting conditions. :smile:

Really nice shots. Did you see an invisible hand at Adam Smith Falls? :biggrin:

Good work, Les. Looks like a great location.

Hi Les,

Superb collection of waterfalls! I like this one the best. The waterfall itself is one of the nicer ones I've seen. The reflections in the water seem to be competing with the leaves, but this is a minor nit in this particular instance.

I placing this area in my "go-to" list! Ken

For anyone looking for a variety of very scenic waterfalls, this place is hard to beat.

Just be really careful of your footing if you go. The huge signs they post saying "slippery rocks" aren't just for the stupid; I managed to slip on one at the base of this particular waterfall - an innocent-enough looking flat, seemingly clean rock - I stepped carefully and next thing I knew my foot (and my shin - ouch) were headed for the next rock over...

A very nice collection of shots but I really like Adam Smith Falls.

Beautiful waterfall. Great silky quality to the water. Nice balance with the foreground.
