Hi all,
I've been to this site several times to see where different waterfalls are that I might have missed. I live in Auburn and try to get to as many waterfalls as I can, in every season. I was interested in submitting some entries for the January Winter Waterfall contest, but wasn't sure how to do this. Do I just attach a picture to a message like this? Thanks, larry

Lets see if this works now. This is Taughannock Falls, taken last January; it is HDR with a lot of contrast.

Welcome, Larry! Nice shot!
I am strong, because I've been weak.
I am fearless, because I've been afraid.
I am wise, because I've been foolish.
