Foto Friday-Amazing Water Falls

Hi Kevin, Yep in Northern PA. Thanks for dropping by.

Hi Teri, It is so totally gorgeous there and so vast a wilderness in the Pocono Mountains. I can actually imagine myself living there. Not sure how I would handle all the cold weather though,as we are so temperate here in San Diego and my blood thinned out too much. Besides I am a real sun person and I didn't see it while back east. No complaints though, it made navigating around so enjoyable because it wasn't hot. But it will get hot and very humid and then I would be running back to San Diego, :-)

Hi Judy, What Localism on AR has done is acquaint many of us with areas of the country that we had no idea of its treasures. I am guess here but I am thinking out loud that ActiveRain members that get around to see and read at least some of what is available here is so immersed in information and not just about their niche in real estate. We get a broad education about so much of what most in the profession or any profession just have no idea about. Thanks for reminding of all this in your comment. And know that I really appreciate you sharing that here in this post. Judy , I hope you come over again and again.

Hi Rene, There is beauty in them thar hills. Or did they say that about California, LOL. Well if they said it wrong, and they surely did, see the northeast, put it on your Bucket List. The NE is magnificent. At least parts of it is.

Hi Joan, You are so dear Joan and I am glad your manager is doing well. The mnager at my office and I have been friends about a quarter of a century, ( don't you love that? In  3 more years that wil be how long I have been in the business). She had a double masectomy and she is a survivor. Between prostate cancer and breast cancer, it seems like everyone has been getting it, like the flu. It is one of real trageties and yet we see such heroism of these survivors and what they go through. It would seem if one can overcome this horrible disease they could probably overcome just anything but the fear of it returning never goes away. Thank you for your wonderful note Joan, it is so appreciated and I fell very honored. I haven't written much of late. I haven't even been on line much reading and leaving comments. I was away for a while and even before that I was beginning to wane a bit when it comes to writing and just keeping up. I should do better. God knows, I always have a lot to say, :-)

Hi Debe, But I was still imagining what these photos would like using various lenses and shutter speeds to capture the moment. But I opted for convenience instead , :-)But I am gald I at least had the trusty little one. How would I have conveyed these. Wait until you see the other things, like the Longwood Gardens Conservatory. It was 2 shades of awesome.

Woo Hoo Sally said I should have brought it back. I can only imagine having this somewhere in my back yard, even a little one that looked like it would be so hot. And I could sell the water and make all our water issues go away. Besides becoming very wealthy.

Hi Marchel, Thank you so much. The North east is so lush you will swear that God invented a new GREEN. I grew up back there and never remember the green being so intense. I am sure you will love it and don't be disappointed that photos come out looking almost a blue green. Yep, It is that green there.

Hi Konnie, Well, they are certainly worth taking a visit to. Amazing how easy it is to navigate them. You will love it!

Hi Konnie, You are so right. There is though settings and filter required to give the water a warm soft glow that you do not see here. In the future, I will have the right lens, filter and know better how to achieve that softening glow. Watch me grow, I am  loving photography.

Hi Richard, A major big wonderful surprise awaits you when you finally get there. Awesome place and here is a tip. Wear boat shoes if you have them. Bring you own food and water ( especially if you want to make a day of it, have a good energy level to start out, plan on spending at least 2 to 3 hours on the trails if not more. The farther away falls are also spectacular. There are 3 or 4 different level trails. If you are healthy, don't be intimidated by one of the more difficult ones. They are not that hard but they have to look out for people so know your own body and what feels comfortable for you.  Bring you camera.
