The Shequaga Falls

By Shattman
   The area to the south and southeast of Rochester is known as the Finger Lakes Region. They are are beautiful, dotted with scores of vineyards and wineries on their eastern and western shores. In addition, there is an abundance of state and local parks, and many contain waterfalls. Moreover, many of the surrounding towns contain one or more falls, which was important for industry and the construction of a varietuy of mills in their vicinity. The images below are of the Shequaga Falls [in the town of Montour Falls], a native American name meaning 'tumbling waters'. In order to include the base of the falls in these images, I had to get in close. Consequently, the upper portion of the falls  [156-feet high] was obscured. This post is one of a line of waterfall images that I intend to continue over time.
