Mohican Falls is found in Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania. The park is named for R. Bruce Ricketts, a colonel in the American Civil War who owned over 80,000 acres (32,000 ha) in the area in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but spared the old-growth forests in the glens from clearcutting. The park, which opened in 1944. Ricketts named 21 of the 24 waterfalls, mostly for Native American tribes and places, and his family and friends. Kitchen Creek flows down three steep, narrow valleys, or glens. We hiked down one glen and then up another. You can do this in one day if you start early.

Overall I like the photo. Personally, I would decrease the exposure just slightly and increase the contrast. Did you use a polarizer at all? I love taking waterfall photos in the fall even after peak colors. Very nicely done.

I probably should have used a vignett on the image, I see you use them on some of yours. Seems the dark look is in right now, but to each his own. I dont think I used a polarizer as you can see a bit of reflection in the water just in front of the horizontal log
