    Taughannock Falls near Ithaca, NY in the middle of winter.

    Those icicles hanging from the top of the falls had to be 50 feet or longer. The falls themselves are 215 feet tall.

    Thanks, John, Tim and Jeff! ; The key to this photo is the people though I had a hard time getting them in a better position in the frame. ; Cropping this to a 4x5 ratio helped some.

    Extremely amazing shot Scott.


    Of course I had to bust out the spring clothes yesterday and wear shorts.[nb]It was in the upper 70s. ; Yes I took advantage of it.[/nb] ; And now they're actually mentioning the S word for the first time this season for later this week.

    Fantastic shot, Scott. ; I didn't notice the people until you mentioned them - they really add scale to the shot.
