Description

Erie Waterfall was surrounded by heavy green foliage on this perfect summer solstice evening. The sun was setting here, with the sun's direct rays shining through the forest canope, well above the face of the waterfall. This image was captured from the steep hillside, below the main pathway of the Ganoga Glen Trail. Erie is the first major waterfall that you will encounter as you hike up the trail above the Waters Meet Point in Ricketts Glen State Park.

Ricketts Glen is a very popular State Park, located in the north eastern region of Pennsylvania, USA. The nearest community to the park is Red Rock, situated at the junction state routes RT-118 and RT-487.

This photo was taken with a Canon EOS 5D DSLR body, fitted with a Canon EF 17-40mm f/4L Zoom lens, at the 25mm focal length. The shutter speed was 1 full second at f/6.3, ISO 100. An ND-8 Neutral Density filter was used on the lens while the camera was mounted on a Manfrotto heavy duty tripod. A remote shutter release cable was also used.

This image is presented "as-is", straight from the camera. The camera RAW image was converted to JPEG, without alterations.
