That's okay. With the temperatures this week perhaps there will be enough ice on the falls for Matt's January photo challenge!

I plan on heading out there this winter... but I'm wating on some good ice buildup

Remembered that I needed to post some of the shots I took. Being two of the three I am posting there are up, I'll put those three and a few others up here to share. I'll put some others (Ithaca Falls, Buttermilk) in the right forums after I get them posted on my blog. :)

It was a fun trip. I want to see this place in better weather and in the fall. :)

Nice shots. You won't see much more water coming over the falls, other than perhaps after a spring thaw. During the summer it's hard to get a shot without people unless you get there really early, which is one of the best times to photograph the falls anyway.

Yeah, had a blast. I want to go back in the spring at some point and maybe spend a night up there to get two days in and see some other falls. I like all the little ones coming off the hill as you drive up to Taughannock Falls. I'd love to be able to stop and shoot a few of them.

Also, I took some video of the falls in Ithaca. Nothing professional or anything, but like a few 10-second clips. Is there any way of posting this on here? I can upload it to YouTube and then post here, but can that be done?
