Well the other week when I headed into the woods, I had some nice success with the camera. Over the last year or 3, I’ve been having a tough time getting out due to business requirements, but when I get out and get shots like this, it’s all worth it.

The photo below is Kaaterskill Falls. These falls are a very short easy walk in from the road up in the northern Catskills. The falls are a total of about 260 feet in 2 stages. I took this shot with my Canon Digital Rebel (a few photogs were convinced that it was film). The walk is right off NY 23A about 3 miles from Pallenville, NY. Right along the road is another set of waterfalls called Bastion Falls. If you’re a waterfall fan (like I am), this under 1 hour round trip walk is definitely worth checking out. There’s a parking lot that can accomodate about 10 cars about a quarter mile from the trail head. [Be careful around the trailhead, the road is really crazy right there.]
