Steamboat Rock at Clifton Gorge Ohio. The water is very high this day from all of the thundershowers. This provided a great opportunity for capturing the water with a slow exposure.

Hidden deep in the Fallsville falls gorge you will find clear creek stream meandering through the forest. There was so many rain showers and lightning this day we almost did not hike to these falls. But thanks to a man who sells home made maple syrup who is a fellow Christian the Lord lead us to this wonderful hidden treasure in the middle of a nature preserve.

As I stood in the middle of the creek attempting to capture the essence of the fall foliage and creek scenery I noticed this small leaf floating by. My desire was to capture the rocks under the water, the leaf and the fall foliage in the background. Doing all this while standing on a rock about 10 inches wide must have been funny to watch!

Deep in a forest ravine near the Blackwater River in West Virginia. The water is ice cold and only flowing because of the constant motion. The temperatures are in the single digits but the ice and winter snow make the scenery alive in the dead of winter.

While standing on a rock in the middle of this forest stream, I attempted to capture the stream and fall tree colors surrounding us in this mountain gorge. Notice how clear the water is which is made possible with a circular polarized lens filter.

Late in the afternoon after hiking down into the bottom of this gorge (about 5 or 6 miles) we are blessed to see the further most lower falls of White Oak Gorge. This photo does not do the autumn scenery justice, it is truly a blessing to see the forest river flowing through the colorful autumn landscape, and it was well worth it.

Several miles into White Oak Canyon this little creek empties just below the last of the six waterfalls. This is a very beautiful place especially with the fall foliage surrounding the area this time of the year.

An autumn stream HDR image deep in White Oak Canyon. The fall foliage is in peak display down in this protected area from the blowing winds which are responsible for many barren trees this season. This was taken without a filter because of the low evening light. We still have about another 4 miles to hike out of here, and ended up walking the last mile completely in the dark forest.

The cool autumn water rushes through this creek in the middle of a West Virginia forest. This water is leading to the blackwater river and creates a spectacular scene as it passes through the colorful autumn foliage.
