Rains had been heavy and sustained for several days, which was good news for local waterfalls. My son, Pete, and I drove out to Foster Falls on the 8th hoping to get some good pics. In all the time I've been in Tennessee I had never been to Foster Falls. Pete had been to the falls several times and was amazed by the amount of water flowing over the falls on the day of our visit. He assured me that I was seeing 2-3 times above average water flow. There is a nice observation platform above the falls where I took my first pictures. After a steep climb, we reached the base of the falls where picture taking was made difficult by the heavy spray of water coming off the falls. Pete helped by keeping my lens covered until right before I took the shot, and then wiping off the lens. After trudging back up the rocky trail, I clicked off a few more shots before the cold temperatures got the better of me.

Prize winning photos. You even captured the magic of the rainbow in the last picture! Beauty is definately captured by the photographers lens, caught at the right moment by a accomplished photographer. Keep snapping!
