Seneca Rocks Hike

This past week I got to go with my siblings and a from church to Seneca Rocks in WV.  What an amazing trip it was!  Here are some select photos that give a small glimpse of the grander of the hike. :)

Anyone happen to have been here before?  Do you enjoy hiking?
If so what are some of your favorite places?

Photographing

 In case anyone was wondering how I took the waterfall pictures, this is my usual technique. :)

What techniques do you have for good photography?  Have any good stories? I'd love to hear them!

More Falls :)

Waterfall Weekend

This weekend I went with a good friend of mine that likes to photographing waterfalls as much as I do (actually probably more).  Saturday we went hiking in WV to a waterfall he had discovered and then Sunday to one in PA (very near my house actually and I never even knew it was there!).   Here are some of my favorite photos from the hikes. :)  Which is your favorite and why?

Now for a special treat - an animated photo to give a small taste of what one of the waterfalls looked 

like in person. :)
