Today’s Mission… Find some waterfalls

Today was all about hiking and finding some waterfalls to photograph. I decided to take the easy route and drove a short distance from North Conway to Diana’s Baths, a series of waterfalls that at one time powered a mill. What a great way to spend a morning! I trekked up a number of levels, taking pictures as I climbed. Beautiful and just what I needed after a long semester at school!

After Diana’s Baths, I decided to test my stamina and hike to Arethusa Falls via a side trip to photograph Bemis Falls and Coliseum Falls. About 2 miles uphill (talk about your natural stairmaster!) and some amazing falls with a few small woodland creatures thrown in for good measure. When I finally arrived at Arethusa Falls, I unfortunately found this massive falls brightly lit at the top with the middle deeply shaded. Needless to say I decided a full shot of the falls would not do. However, You’ll have to let me know if my other photographic efforts worked. Here’s a sample: 

Tomorrow, I am taking the Conway Scenic Railroad through the Mt. Washington Valley. Looking forward to it. In the meantime, checkout the gallery!
