Wow, that is just an absolutely gorgeous bird. Great capture!
Thank you very much, Tim! I enjoyed your waterfall images. I hope I will be able to follow suit by this weekend…

But in the mean time, here is a set of peregrine falcon chick images. The mother brought them a kill as meal but they either didn’t know how to eat that or not that hungry. They ended up playing with it until one of them dropped it by accident and it rolled off the cliff….

Hasn't been a lot of good color this autumn in PA, at least my usual jaunts. Still quite a few green trees, but a lot of leaves down at Ricketts Glen. What color is there is someone muted and there are brown blotches on the changing leaves.
Nice set of images of Ricketts Glen State Park, Tim! I will be there next week.
Went to Blackwater Falls State Aprk in West Virginia yesterday, got there 45 minutes before sunrise but the sun didn't peek through the cloud/fog until 9:00. The waterfall is actually named "Douglas Fall" so it was worth the stop.
A challenging image to edit because of focus stacking challenges. There was a slight breeze causing some of the ferns to move. I took a series of images and ran several sets through Helicon Focus after Photoshop failed. Although not 100% perfect, I am pleased with the overall result.
