OA on the abiss 2601 viewsThe park is set up real niece, with board walks and platforms but, if one is a serious waterfalls photographer it would take rappelling to get to the bottom of the sinkhole to get a good shot.

Along the river I found the only waterfall I saw on the Seine River Cruise. Unfortunately, it was small and at night.

Yeah, I know the same nation that gave us (US) the Statue Of Liberty has better waterfalls, I just did not go near one.

Cherokee Falls 22591 viewsSorry but, due to time constraints, the falls located in Cloudland Canyon State Park, Georgia, are of poor quality and both tint and contrast were adjusted to make them usable.

Near darkness!

Down Stream *2590 viewsMaybe a ten foot falls but, water was high and it was an easy photo shot, right beside the road to Thurmon, WV.

This road leads to a rafting drop off so watch out for buss traffic, not school bus type...Gray Dog type.
