I can easily imagine this is where the Pentax pixies live, when they're not sorting out the magic dust in our lenses.

Great shot.

I don't know about pixies, but there is a species of snail that lives on that waterfall that doesn't exist anywhere else.

Indeed a beautiful shot of an amazing location! Would be very interested to hear more about the endemic snail species too.

The Chittenango Ovate Amber Snail. Not a very exciting animal

Thanks for the information and link. Kind of sad story of its rapid decline... And they mentioned it has relatives here in Tennessee!!

Thanks! I'm really looking forwards to shooting the fall colors around here that will be in full swing soon.

Thanks, it's literally right down the road from where I grew up. Sometimes I forget how spoiled I was.
