This site is dedicated to waterfalls, mountains, an old aviators memories, with lots of poetic liberties, some just plain made up, and interesting places to visit.
Ol' Swimming Hole1708 viewsBeing near Tennessee Tech University it is welll used as a swimming hole. I don't know of any better. Deep hole at bottom with a diving platform of eight feet.
BTW, if you are incapable of logical decisions, the State Park Service provided a Ranger to make them for you. Don't be the Dummy that everyone speaks of in past tense .
Ozone Showing Off In Winter1706 viewsLots of water and few tourist.
Different view of squirt1699 views
Upper-11692 viewsStanding on the top of Joe Mills Upper Falls. Look at the whirl at the bottom enhanced with a time exposure.
First Glimpse1686 viewsAfter descending into the gorge, then going back upstream, this is my first view of Cummins.
Lower Puncheon Falls1682 viewsAs you can see Lower Puncheon is the remains of an old mill.
Tennessee has many of these old mills and I just wish spillways could talk.
Great Falls?1681 viewsThe power company was not generating so, the river was very low. I think this is the non-generating version of Great Falls.
Just below this is Twin Falls which had lots of water.
Blow Down1680 viewsanother pretty pool with lots of laurel leaf covered rocks and moss.
Spruce Thicket Cotton1678 views
Trick1678 viewsWaterfalls don't really look like this. A local photographer is confident enough in his own work to share this trick.
Rotate the polarized filter for the least glare. Close the aperture as much as possible.(I use f-11) With the shutter speed as low as possible, (shoot for a full second if possible), start experimenting until you get just the photo you are looking for. I prefer mine a little dark so I can process them using Picasa 3. The silky look is directly tied to shutter speed and a cloudy day doesn't
