Nice shots. I need to ask; is there a lot of tannin in the water? On my monitor, it looks a little like "frothy coffee", much like Blackwater Falls in WVA.
I have heard them referred to as Root Beer Falls. Been there several times, great place to take pictures.

My shots of the falls don't look anything like yours -- darn it! Nice shots.

Tahquamenon Falls in Michigan...please download
Tee-kwam-a-non is how the natives pronounce it. The Tahquamenon River gets it's color from there abundance of cedar trees in the area. The trees leach the color into a chocolate lovers delight. Bob has captured the true colors well, and processed the colors equally as well. Slightly west of this falls is Munising MI. where several other waterfalls are found. Paradise Rocks are located on the south shore of Lake Superior and compliment the location as a great spot for photography. We shot a workshop there last year at this time, photographers were in abundance. Several small lakes and fall colors turn the entire region into a photographer's delight.

Tah-kwah-meh-non is how we always pronounced it. I used to live not far from it. It's also spectacular in the winter with lots of colours in the ice.

Nice images. When I was a teenager I was at the upper falls, climbed down the steep embankment a ways downriver, threaded my way back along a narrow rocky ledge and went behind the falls. There is a slippery narrow cutback behind the falls where you can stand with the massive volumes of water falling within an arm's length before you. A couple other kids were back there and screaming at the top of my lungs at the guy next to me I couldn't even hear my own voice. Truly impressive, not to mention dangerous. A once in a lifetime experience that you can't get away with today.

Very nice Bob. I also love the light and effect on the first. The second makes me thirsty for root beer.
