Waterfalls in Ithaca New York

One of my favorite places to go and shoot pictures is Ithaca New York. Their you can find many different waterfalls to photograph, and these three are within 10 miles of each other. Get up early before the sun becomes to bright and have some fun. They are all New York State Parks once you pay the 7 dollar entrance fee hold on to your ticket it will allow you to enter the other parks for the rest of the day...

This is Taughannock Falls main entrance off NYS Rte. 89 or follow signs from NYS Rte. 96 to park.

I can't remember the name of this waterfall but it is found in Robrt H. Treman Park, Main entrance off NYS Rte. 327. Go to the upper entrance to see waterfall it is off Rte. 327, 3.5 miles west of NYS Rte. 13

This is Buttermilk Falls main entrance off NYS Rte. 13. Their are 5 or 6 waterfalls one after another, you wont believe your eyes. A path runs along the side of the river the walk up the steps is not easy take your time.

If you stay at the Super 8 motel Buttermilk falls is 2 or 3 city blocks away. Gary

Waterfall's in New York

If you want to photograph waterfalls the place to go is Watkins Glen State Park in New York. It's part of the finger lakes region and very easy to get to, use google. For a modest  fee of 7 dollars you get to walk along a path which follows a river cascading down into at lease 10 spectacular waterfalls, a photographers dream. If you do go show up early to avoid crowds and to catch the early sunlight as afternoon specular light is to hard.
Also another half hour away in Ithaca New York their are more waterfall I will blog these location at a later date. Gary
