Today's offering from me is a scene with a couple of small falls along Sweet Creek in Oregon's coast range from last fall.
Beautiful but make and expansive picture.At Moose Falls in Yellowstone, there was a slight rain, and after taking this photo, I neglected to pack the Gitzo tripod into the car. It dawned on me 15 minutes later at the next stop; I returned, but the tripod had disappeared.

Beautiful falls Rick - nice inclusion for scale in the first imageA beautiful place in Sainte-Agathe de Lotbiniere, lost somewhere between Montreal and Quebec city. Was there with Normand my partner in crime.

Bummer about the tripod but the falls look really nice. I like the damp look the light rain contributed to the scene.At Moose Falls in Yellowstone, there was a slight rain, and after taking this photo, I neglected to pack the Gitzo tripod into the car.

Glad you got to talk with the farmer - these are some really nice falls. I have had some luck with some falls shooting from above but the views from below are almost always better. Good example of that.Still on the river Swale near Keld, North Yorkshire. Rutter Force is tucked away behind a farm, is not shown on most maps and is therefore not often photographed.
I find that waterfalls don't look at their best from the top but I thought that this was going to be my only view of it

Just as I was going to walk back onto the main road I saw the farmer and asked if it was possible to get below the falls. given permission to walk through I made my way through

Next week, further downstream for another set of falls. Ken
Sweet falls - I like the sideways path of the water.
Good work on taming the light in this image - those falls are not an easy photo target on sunny day.Another view of Madison Creek Falls in the Olympic Peninsula from a trip in summer. Processed recently.

These falls are a lot more open these days after the Eagle Creek Fire took out quite a few of the surrounding trees. Nice you got an overcast day to visit.One more from Alan's territory
Just a few miles from Multomah Fall is Horsetail Falls

I have a story that is eerily similar, Murali. I was photographing a landscape in a meadow in Yosemite late in the day. A few deer showed up and I decided to photograph them and took my camera off of the tripod in order to follow them for a close up. When it got too dark to photograph, I went back to the car, put my camera in my backpack and drove off. I didn't realize that I didn't pick up my tripod until I got back to the motel. I got up early the next day to get back to the meadow before sunrise and when I got there it was gone.At Moose Falls in Yellowstone, there was a slight rain, and after taking this photo, I neglected to pack the Gitzo tripod into the car. It dawned on me 15 minutes later at the next stop; I returned, but the tripod had disappeared.
