I forgot how beautiful it is

Yesterday I had a very nice time at dinner with Greg and Cheryl.

This morning I went to Panther Creek Falls. This time I also went down to the bottom. I won’t be doing that again. It was rough going. Bless the kind soul who left a sort of rope tied to a tree. Too bad it wasn’t long enough. But anything helps. I’m glad that I was able to get down there to see what it looks like from that perspective.

I completely forgot how beautiful the cleverly named Falls Creek is. I suppose that sort of oversight is prone to happen when there is a magnificent, exhilarating waterfall upstream. Pictures don’t do Falls Creek Falls Justice. Especially mine. But most of them won’t show how impressive this waterfall is.

I was planning to finish the day with a hike to Rodney Falls and Hardy Falls. I haven’t yet been to them, but since they’re south facing I figured that it was likely that I wouldn’t be getting any shots due to the sunlight, so I decided to make this a short day.

This is gorgeous! I love reflection shots where the water is just turned into gold! So where is a photo of Falls Creek Falls? I'm interested now!
