I head to go to Syracuse yesterday morning but decided before I left that the return trip would be an adventure. After my first waterfall image a few years ago (well, at least since learning more about photography) I have been fascinated by them. Surprising, New York state has an abundance of waterfalls for me to explore. I found the NYFalls website about a year ago and have been trying to make my way to those close to me.
Pratt’s Falls is located just south of Syracuse within the Pratt’s Fall County Park in the town of Pompey. There is a nice trail leading down to an overlook spot at the base of the falls. With all the recent rain it did make for an interesting walk but ensured there would be good water flow over the falls. Due to the severity of the terrain in the gorge you have to stay on the trail which limits the possible views of the falls. I think a revisit during the colored leaves season is in order…

Like the first one the best. I will say it’s about the only good thing about the rain this summer, it keeps the waterfalls flowing!
Thanks Scott! I also stopped at Chittenango Falls but there was too much water flowing for good images. A lot of mist in the air as well as a mass of white water… I searched out other details.
That is nuts for July.
This is what I found at Chittenango – http://wp.me/a2zO0G-C2
