I'm putting up some Black and Whites from a previous trip from July 2011. My wife and I had taken a trip up to Bartlet New Hampshire to check out a serious of water falls called Diana's Bath.

Here is some info I cut and pasted off the web about Diana's Bath:
Visit this site for all the info:

      Diana’s Baths are a must see if you are in the North Conway area and want to experience nature at its finest. Diana’s baths lie along Lucy Brook in Bartlett which is fed from Big Attitash Mountain. During the summer the baths are a great place for children and grown-ups alike to enjoy the tranquility of nature, and explore the many rocks, ledges, cascading falls and pools in the brook. The cascading falls measure Aprox. 75 feet in total height.
     The water levels and intensity of the water flowing in the brook can vary greatly depending on the season and rainfall. April is when the water levels are at their peak flows, giving visitors a spectacular show of the waterfalls and cascades the brook has to offer. In the summer the flow is greatly reduced making it much safer to for visitors to walk along the rocks and wade in the pools.

We went in July and the water was still pretty impressive. The hike in was not bad, I would say about 30-45 minutes. The trail is well traveled and an easy hike for the mostpart. I carried in my bag
(about 15-lbs) and tripod.

I used a Cannon T1i set to Manual With a Tamron lens SP 17-50 F/2.8 - ISO 100 to shoot these. I used a tripod or bean bags to steady the shot.

I love photographing water. It’s nature at its finest. By changing shutter speeds and f-stops you get fantastic effects. Macro lens gives you unseen imagery. Rain drop reflections. It is endless what could be done. Let me know of any good water falls in New England. Check out my website www.photosbyrichardvincent.com

 

Have a good one,
