Another one I dug up in the excavation of my film archives. A not too bad set of shots of Blue Ridge Falls in Essex County. I'm pretty sure these are still accessible, though I think the land is private, I don't believe it's posted, and I've seen people in there all the time.

They aren't terribly high, maybe ten feet at the most, but there are several drops spread out along a good section of the river, and since it's a major waterway, there's usually a good flow of water. I should probably get back there a shoot a decent set of pictures one of these days.

Looks like a lot going on with this set of falls. It's good to see green again - it's not even Thanksgiving and I miss it already.

Yeah, green is nice this time of year, looking at summer photos is one way to get it. These were taken in May of 91, probably Memorial Day weekend.
