Buttermilk Falls state park is located just outside Ithaca, NY. The park contains a chain of waterfalls hidden in a glen just upstream of Buttermilk falls (which can be viewed from the parking lot).

These include "Pinnacle Falls"

Stopped on the way home from photographing a reception. Took this about 3am. Used the flashlight on my iPhone to light the grass in front of the camera. 30 second exposure at f/4, 16mm, ISO 6400. Think I'm going to like this 6D.

This was an extreme challenge for birds in flight.....I spent a good 90 minutes with Tree Swallows buzzing all around me. I was using the 7D MKII + Canon 300mm f/2.8L This was my best image and maybe the toughest to get with the bird flying straight into the camera. If you can keep the birds in frame the AF system on the 7D MKII is very capable of focusing and tracking fast objects with erratic flight paths

Okay I just did a sneak-a-peek at the entries so far this week, since I'm doing the judging in a couple of days. You guys are positively killing me... these are all insane shots! Right now I'm inclined to just take the easy way out and call a 6-way tie. But please keep them coming... I love a challenge!
