Ellen
Its excellent this photo Lianne, and what a beautiful colors!
lianne replied
Thank you so much Ellen – it was just a perfect day – I actually nearly got myself killed climbing up and down the gorge to catch a shot of the falls – only to fine the best images were right there on top! I’m so glad you liked it!
TeriLee
This is incredible! Beautiful image, well done!! :)x
lianne replied
Thanks so much TeriLee – it’s the kind of day that makes your heart soar! So delighted that you liked it!
aspectsoftmk
let me just walk into this lianne..beautiful, breathtaking, stunning, my kind of place…to walk the river…exceptional photography and a wonderful feel to my eyes…just wow…
lianne replied
Awww thank you Terri – I can just feel you splashing away, even though it’s a bit cold already. Still the sound of the falls and this color makes it all worthwhile! So very glad you liked it!
skinnyman
Love this feeling of autumn hovering over a creek…So like England this time of year….xx
lianne replied
I’d love to see England in the autumn – I was there in the midst of a summer heat wave! I’m so glad you liked this Peter – thank you so much!
Bev Woodman
This is beautiful Lianne – its almost like an oil painting. I’m sure an artist would like to paint this one!♥
lianne replied
And if I WERE an artist I’d give it a shot myself Bev! Thank you so much my friend – I’m so glad you liked it!
JKKimball
wonderful Lianne!
Love Strykersville!
lianne replied
Well John that just tickles me to death since I’m pretty much entrenched right here and don’t go too far afield any more. A bit of hiking required for this one, however, but I’m glad you think it was worth it! Thank you!
wingsoffire
I love Autumn and all of it’s rich colors, this is just stunning!
lianne replied
Thank you so much – what a lovely thing to say. I’m so glad you liked it!
A.M. Ruttle
Wow, look at that light bouncing off the leaves and water; touché!
lianne replied
Thanks so much – that makes me feel just grand and sure makes the hike to get this shot worthwhile! So glad you liked it.
Jeff Burns
wonderfully done
lianne replied
Thank you so much Jeff – I’m really pleased that you liked it!
Lisa Jewell
Oh my how glorious…
the colours of autumn have a way of making me want to settle into myself, and then of course roll around on the rich earthy leaves..
xx
lianne replied
Oh I know – and then add the scents and the sounds of rustling leaves and waterfalls and I believe I’m in heaven. This is where I go to reflect and while it was a bit damp for rolling around, I did manage to slide down the 85 degree slope into the gorge on my rear end because the leaves were so slippery! And then had to crawl back up on my knees grabbing tree roots for leverage – lol. After all that, the best shot was above the gorge anyway – rofl! I’m so glad you liked this Lisa – that makes me feel just wonderful!
jacqi
Beautiful Lianne! The water looks like molten metal
lianne replied
Thanks so much Jacqi – it does, doesn’t it? I couldn’t believe my good fortune in catching just the right light. So glad you liked it my friend!
Maureen Maliha
Lianne… this is beautiful and i can’t stop looking at it. Lovely work my friend!!!!
lianne replied
Awww thank you so much Maureen – I thought of how much you’d have liked this place as I was scrambling down the sides of the steep gorge and then clawing my way back up – lol. I’m getting too old for such shenanigans and then the best shots of the day didn’t require that anyway! Figures huh? So delighted that you liked this – pleases me no end coming from one whose images are always so beautiful!
Maureen Maliha
One day we can take our mutally old bones and scramble together.. at least there will be someone to call 911. xox
lianne replied
Lord I’m such an idiot I left my cell at home – lol – not that there’s a signal down there anyway! But I’d like that – maybe we can use some climbing ropes – lol.
dawndavies
fabulous picture, such a great colour,dawn
lianne replied
Thank you so much Dawn – that means a lot to me. I so appreciate your visit and lovely comment!
Mariann Kovats
Gorgeous Lianne! Stunning colors and comp.! I am still in Hungary, I hoped we get some nice autummn color, but it wasn’t cold enough to change colors. Yesterday it was in the 80’s, which is really unusuall for this time of the year. So I am really jealous for this capture. :)
lianne replied
Aww I’m sorry you’ve missed the color. We’ve just begun to have some here really. I’m just delighted that you like it though. When are you coming home from Hungary?

and please be careful… those leaves can be super
slippery! xox
lianne replied
Thanks for the warning – lol – and darned if I didn’t almost take a header down about 100 ft into the gorge below the falls. Crazy – lol. But I’m thrilled with the result even if this shot required no dangerous escapades. So happy that you liked it!

rodeorose
Right at this moment I just don’t recall ever seeing a better picture of Autumn LIanne. This one has moved me with its absolute beauty. You are amazing my dear friend.
lianne replied
Aww Rosie – thank you so very much. I did get very lucky with this after a hairbrained trek down the side of a gorge – lol. Only to find that the most beautiful shot of the day was taken from a much safer vantage point! I’m just thrilled that you like it my friend – this one felt like a blessing somehow. Thank you!

Christie Moses
Oh the Fall is so beautiful isn’t it? What a stunning capture Lianne :) xoxo
lianne replied
Thank you so much Christie – oddly autumn is my favorite season for all this beauty and color but also in some ways the season that makes me somewhat melancholy. Such a dichotomy! But I’m delighted that you liked this – this is one of those “favorite” days!

:)))
lianne replied
Wow Maggie I’m just overwhelmed with the graciousness of that beautiful comment. Thrilled beyond words actually. [But yes, I think I’ll fore-go the hillside scramble for a while – it was a bit too risky to qualify as good sense! Thank you my friend!
Charlene Aycoc...
Awesome fall capture. Beautiful work, and another that looks like home.
lianne replied
Charlene I’m so very honored by your visit and by favoriting this image. I do so love autumn here in the northeast and a perfect day like this one is one reason why. Thank you so very much!

hsien-ku
the colours, textures, the light
this is just like an oil painting.
beautiful!
you and the fair maureen should receive a stern talking to for casting such cruel aspersions on your ageless physical forms!
lianne replied
You are too funny my friend! But I am totally thrilled that you really like this – I think I’m prouder of this than almost any photo I’ve taken. If I were talented enough to attempt it, I’d actually try to paint this. As for fair Maureen – she’s a good deal younger than I am – lol – but occasionally I let my head convince my body I can still do this silly kind of thing! Thank you so much my friend!
