5-16 Turner Bend Falls

After we left Pig Trail Falls, we headed over to the little General Store at Turner Bend, which is on the Mulberry River. There is a little waterfall right next to the store.  This may be the second easiest waterfall to get to. When we got there, it was still mostly cloudy but the sun started peeking out after a little while.

We were glad to see this waterfall with some good water. (5 sec, f-22, ISO100)

It makes a nice curtain of water. (5 sec, f-22, ISO100)

I loved this red rock sitting in the middle of the rain. (1 sec, f-22, ISO100)

This is when the sun started shining.  Normally the sun makes shooting difficult, but in this instance the rays were only hitting the falling water drops which gave a nice effect. (2 sec, f-22, ISO100)

I cropped the above picture to focus on the stair steps of moss covered rock. (2 sec, f-22, ISO100)

I set my camera for a faster shutter speed to isolate the path of more water drops. (1/6 sec, f-5, ISO100)

This one is cropped from above to fill the frame more with streaks of water. (1/6 sec, f-5, ISO100)

For just a few seconds there were some tight sunbeams hitting the dancing water. (1/20 sec, f-4.5, ISO100)

While I was writing this post, I decided to crop the above image and boost the brightness and contrast in the water drops.  I wanted to emphasize the play of light and water. (1/20 sec, f-4.5, ISO100)

Grant loves to look for rocks to throw. (1/30 sec, f-4, ISO200)

This is another waterfall that is easy to get to and very kid friendly.  Next we headed up the Mulberry River to find High Bank Twins.
