A beautiful hike in the Catskills with my wife on MLK Day.
When we first got to the fall in the morning, the light was coming in too much from the front. THe rock wall behind the water was in full sun light.
I was returning later, when the sun illuminated the fall, but the rock wall behind the falling water was already in the shade.
