Ashgill Burn begins its life as a small stream known as Little Gill, it finds its source at a height of more than 2,300 feet on the northwestern slopes of Burnhope Seat in the North Pennine Hills. The gill descends into a steep gorge as it reaches the Pennine road from Alston to Middleton-in-Teesdale ( B6277) and below the road bridge the gill falls a spectacular fifty feet from a rock shelf into a pool in the wooded valley below. The force is not visible from the road. It is possible to walk behind the waterfall and remain dry where the sedimentary rocks laid down when the area was covered by the "Midlands Sea" can be seen. Geologists across the world refer to this type of rock formation as the Ashgill Event.

Oh my, what a sight! Gorgeous capture Richie! I think the contrast is a little too high on this one though....just a thought ;)

I don't know if its the contrast that im thinking of but ive had the same problem of when i try to use this program to make my pictures sharper, I get a dotted looking effect on parts of the picture. But over all the colors and clarity of the water is amazing.

In life as in dance: grace glides on blistered feet.
A very nice landscape like the water and colors.

The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
I feel like I'm about to cross the stream. Good image.

And I think that geologists would refer to this image as a great photographic event. The detail you've captured in the rocks is outstanding, and I love the bright green moss along the hillside. A nice composition, Richie, looking upstream toward the falls. Well done!
