Thanks for starting this Alan, and a great starter. I have been up there a couple times and was never sure which were the main falls. The place I decided was the main falls was almost impossible to get down to a decent shooting location.

Nice falls even without a name.

The path to get down below Panther Creek Falls is down the road a bit from the main viewing platform. Not the most accessible path for older individuals wandering in solo with a lot of gear.

Skelwith Force in theLake District this morning. Water levels are very low owing to the recent lack of rain but this river flows out of a Lake and this keeps a reasonable amount flowing. Slightly precarious shooting position standing on wet moss covered rocks 15ft above a deep fast flowing river, I may be getting too old for this kind of thing. Ken

Beautiful set of falls Ken - I like the hints of moss around the water channel. I wish it weren't true but some of the more precarious positions I used to assume whilst shooting water features are best left to the younger generations anymore.

A recent visit (Jan. 2) to a new-to-me waterfall called Fairfield Falls in NC. I thought I would try a long exposure on this one (40 seconds). Two-image focus stack, used ND and polarizing filter.
Really long exposures don't always work out for depicting waterfalls but this one sings. Nice work Stephen.
