Great Falls Panorama

Great Falls NP, VA

Great Falls yesterday morning as the flood waters were rising.
This was shot as the water level was about 80,000 cfm. They closed the
park today due to the threat of extreme high flood waters. As I'm writing
the levels are still rising and are now 190,000 cfm. Hopefully I'll
be able to catch a shoot before they fall to far.

OBTW this is a three shot pano resulting in a 35mp shot,
and the print is awesome!
