In Minneapolis, there is Minnehaha Park. Inside the park, there is a 53 foot water fall.

I am so proud of this pic. I forgot the tripod at home. I was out taking pics with my new Canon 28-135 IS lens.

ISO 100, Shutter 3 sec. (yes, that 3.0 seconds) Aperture F11
I was hanging on to a fence post, but a 3 sec hand held shot is something to
be proud of. (at least I think it is):wink

Note the red blur at the bottom left, that's a kid running through the pic.

Davev, that is one sweet picture, looks better then any postcard I have seen of the falls. When I was younger, used to climb behind the falls. I have lots of pictures of Minnehaha, but nothing nearly as good as yours, but I will show a picture of the river...

Happy Thanksgiving, JoelThanks for the replies.
Joel, what river is the pic of? Is it the creek that runs to the falls?
I think you could make a great fall color picture
from the same spot. (I like this shot also.)

Happy Thanksgiving. dave v

Hi Dave,

My picture was taken at the lower portion of the park, its the Minnehaha Creek about half way between the falls and where Minnehaha meets the Mississippi. Again, I have taken dozens of pictures of the falls, but none as good as yours, very nice...

Looking forward to visiting the park this winter, incredible shots of the falls then.
