An aqua duotone manip of the Passaic Falls in my home town of Paterson, N.J...The name "Passiac" (which is the name of the county in which Paterson is the seat of) comes from an old indian term meaning "People of the Land of the Falling Water"...The Falls aren't that big...but they were a natural source of water power for early textile mills that had set up business in the area during the post-revolutionary early days of the United States...
