Love those red granite rocks. These falls are on Missouri highest mountain which is called Taum Sauk Mountain. It is said to be named after a Piankeshaw Indian chief names Sauk-Ton-Qua.
The legend goes that the Falls are named after the chief's daughter, who though herself off the mountain to her death after her lover was killed.
The image was quite a production, it is a panorama stitched together from three angles, each with 6 exposures to capture details in both the sky with the sun and the falls themselves.
