This is part of the Watkins' Glen ravine walk at the south end of Seneca Lake in New York. (Looking down or back!) I had to shoot at ISO 800 to get any sort of shutter speed. 50mm f5.0 1/160th second. (Some shopping out of people on the stairs too!)

I remember going up that way with my father and some of his friends when I was a kid...This is the Glen itself in Watkins Glen State Park, which I got to see...My father and the other guys in our group's main interests however, was to the Raceway, back when they strictly raced international-circuit Gran Prix type cars...In the early 80's, the track fell into disrepair, and stayed that way for about three years...Thanks to NASCAR, the race course was given a new life, and once again is an active part in NASCAR, Grand Prix/GTP, and now open-wheel/open-cockpit IRL and Formula-type car organizations...The winding course commands complete mastery of speed, braking, and turning skills...especially for NASCAR!

Thanks for sharing this...It's been a long time...Faved...

Truly beautiful scene and shot Russell! I really like the low light and the trickle of a waterfall.

Spend a few minutes each day being grateful for what you have and who you have to share it with.

I love the way you captured the light filtering through the trees and the splash of the waterfall on the stones.

We all live under the same sky but we don't all have the same horizon.
